[TOS] How to become a POSSE instructor

[Alolita Sharma]

Hi Mel, Satya -

Hi, Satya - we don't have any POSSE instructors in India currently, but
I believe that Alolita was hoping to run one there after she became an
instructor at the California POSSE. She's on this list, so hopefully
will see this message.

I am planning to run a POSSE in Mumbai or Pune later this year.

I took at look at the NRCFOSS center materials you linked to, and I
think the key difference between the programs is that POSSE is
specifically aimed towards an audience of professors looking to learn
how to teach their students how to participate in and contribute to open
source communities, whereas NRCFOSS seems to address FOSS usage in general.

One thing I wasn't able to find, though, was the licensing of the
materials on the NRCFOSS site - are they open-licensed?

It would be good to know if the NRCFOSS materials are open licensed? Satya -
can you enlighten us.

Also, I've initial program ideas that I've discussed with various profs in
India which I will put together on the wiki. I invite you and other folks
from NRCFOSS to take a look as well as participate.
