FTG Free Technology Working Group

The working group aims to develop a guild-like structure where people can realise useful projects for peers or customers and while working together with people with different skill sets and experience they can obtain useful experience and economic benefits. Depending on the needs and skills, one can take the role of mentor or apprentice.

The Free Technology Guild can be started off on the basis of the FTA community and current infrastructures, while additional supporting tools are envisioned.

The idea is that we as a group will do useful projects for our members or external parties, and on-the-job we mentor and learn and get better. Activities that would fit in that view include:


 * mentoring/coaching
 * teaching/training
 * software/technology/knowledge development
 * deployment and implementation

All in the domains of Free Software, Culture, Hardware ... technology oriented so to say, and as can be expected from the FTG, based on the four freedoms.

Important documents are written here in collaborative form:


 * Intro on the FTG
 * FTG Foundational Documents
 * Roadmap
