Ross Gardler reports on a talk on the work to provide disaster support with IT in the wake of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami as an example of Humanitarian FOSS.
When I heard the reports of the Web registry being developed I was impressed by the open way it was being approached and so it's great to get more details about the resulting Sahana project. An example to us all, especially on the day California is having the quake shake-out preparedness event.
