Project Caua: Private Sector, Environmentally Friendly Jobs with Free Software

Project Caua is an Open project to create millions of private sector, environmentally friendly jobs in urban areas of Latin America utilizing FOSS, with implications of creating hundreds of thousands of jobs in North America and millions more around the world.

In addition, Project Caua will open an avenue for free (as in beer) wireless Internet to help defeat the digital divide, and to provide low-cost training to get even more people off unemployment and create taxpayers.

The specifications for Project Caua can be found at www.projectcaua.org.

While Project Caua is distribution neutral, Debian would be a natural choice as the underlying distribution and sample implementation. This talk will outline Project Caua and hopefully open the discussion for actual implementation details.
