Open Source News

What better way to start off our show than with news from around the Open Source community. @techslut brought us exciting news items from the Open Source world.


Utopian.io has recently launched a new program for Project Owners - VIPO (Very Important Project Owners.) By taking part in this program project owners become part of an exclusive group and allowing them to add their projects to the whitelists of categories that require them. POs will receive professional guidance from Utopian Community Managers to assist in creating Task Requests on Utopian.io and in turn access the professional services offered by the Utopian community for free.

We were also joined by the wonderfully creative @mkt. He introduced us to the Magic Frog. This little guy is an Open Source tool which allows a community to come together a create a story.
