How do I join the Sakai or OSPortfolio community?

Short version:

Long version:

If you're tinkering with Sakai or its Electronic Portfolio "Open Source Portfolio (OSP)" you might have questions -- or you might find yourself wanting to contribute back to the community (documentation, quality-assurance testing, project management, java or XML coding...)

What is the relationship between OSP and the Sakai Project and its Sakai Foundation?

Open Source Portfolio (OSP) is a set of integrated tools that live inside the full Sakai Collaboration and Learning Environment (CLE).

OSP and Sakai are both community source projects of the non-profit Sakai Foundation.

See the FAQ: Can I use OSP without using Sakai?

Can I use OSP without using Sakai?

in

Yes.

Although Open Source Portfolio runs in and depends on the base Sakai Collaboration and Learning Environment, you can enable and use OSP tools without turning on or using any Sakai collaboration or course tools.

Alternatively, you can enable and use only those Sakai tools that may be useful in your specific portfolio environment, for example, Sakai's announcements, mailling list/archive or calendaring tools.
