<p>David,</p>
<p>I'd definitely be interested in attending any future meetings of the TW website group. Keep me posted.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm assuming, the creator of Bright Neightbor wanted to be able to work on the project full time and decided to keep the source closed and charge for the software so he could make enough money. I think with software like this, it's critical that it's open source, free of restrictions, and free of cost. This would have the effect that it might not be possible…</p>

<p>I'm assuming, the creator of Bright Neightbor wanted to be able to work on the project full time and decided to keep the source closed and charge for the software so he could make enough money. I think with software like this, it's critical that it's open source, free of restrictions, and free of cost. This would have the effect that it might not be possible for a single person to make working on the project a full time job. However, the benefit would be that people from all over the world could participate in the development and communities could easily adop the platform and customize/extend it to their needs.</p>

<p>Jesse,</p>
<p>Good brainstorming going on here. We do have a TW website group, though we haven't met in a while. We need to do that soon, and I will be in touch. I have spoken with the fellow who started Bright Neighbor. It's a good concept, but not free. I haven't looked at it in a while.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We also have a "Personal EDAP" website/software slowly developing. Or I should say it was started, but hasn't had attention lately due to lack of time.</p>

<p>At this point, I'm having a discussion with myself, but I'll add another link if anyone is interested. I've created a new subreddit on reddit.com about what I'm calling appropriate software, which is the software side of appropriate technology.</p>

<p>Here's another link I just found to a list of useful open source software on the open source ecology website.</p>
