Open Source Ldsoss.org

by Larry Richman, Posted December 12th, 2006

Check out ldsoss.org, which is organized “to help advance God’s purposes using our knowledge of technology and science… We attempt to provide affordable technological aids to individuals attempting to live as disciples of Christ in a modern world. We sponsor Open Source software projects and advance the adoption of Open Standards in an effort to make our technologies accessible to all people.”

They have a Wiki and a Mailing List.I would encourage the members of ldsoss to participate in the upcoming tech talks with the Chief Information Officer of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Thanks for providing this. I actually read it yesterday and hit the site right away, as I’ve been looking for this for awhile.

The one line that hit me over there:

“We are not officially affiliated with the LDS Church, but our members ascribe to its teachings, and labor within the established principles of revealed doctrine and inspired Church leadership.”

I’d like to see the Church officially sponsor an open-source LDS site.

Funny you should say that - LDSTech/DevNet is on it’s way! It’s an official community for developers, particulary for Open Source projects. Should be up in the next month or so.
