Jazkarta invited to Penguin Day NYC

The goal of local Penguin Days is to make information about free and open source software available to non-profit organizations.

Penguin Days challenge software developers to provide flexible and appropriate open source software for nonprofits, and also empower nonprofits to better communicate their needs and serve as active partners in the development and use of open source technology.

Penguin Days build community, transfer skills and knowledge, and inject a sense of play into a serious subject. The events often feature matchmaking "speed geeking" sessions, which bring programmers and organizations together to learn about each other's needs and offerings.

In addition to sitting on the panel, Nate also participated in an impromptu speed geeking session, in which he and Chalu Kim (from eGenius) demonstrated the innovative Plone Desktop product (now called Enfold Desktop) which was developed to provide seamless integration between Plone and Windows Explorer.
