Today I published in GPUL’s weblog [ES] a (bit long) reflection on the past and the present, looking to the future of my loved free software group.
These moments to stop & think happen each 3-4 years, because it usually is the life cycle of one generation of activists in the group. I think we have the challenge to overcome the lack of young members. We must keep up with the times too and look for new ways adapted to the current situation: I propose to work in boosting our best programmers in the great free software projects and collaborate with another kind of volunteer associations (NGO’s, tipically).
And it is my personal challenge to overcome my personal circumstances to push GPUL in the way the members decide.
