For Oxfam volunteer-driven free software makes sense By Frederick Noronha
8 March, 2006
In a carefully-planned operation that took more than a year to complete the British charity Oxfam switched three thousand users from using its proprietary collaboration platform to one which is closer to their mission: volunteer-created Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS).
Oxfam's deputy international support manager Fran Boon explained to Frederick Noronha how the switch-over was achieved over the past two years.
To manage its volunteer efforts in the developing world Oxfam uses a callborative Intranet platform that serves around 3000 users and 100 authors. That platform was previously built on proprietary software using Microsoft's IIS, ASP and FrontPage.
"We migrated this system to the LAMP (Linux-Apache-MySQL-Php) stack [but] to make the migration as easy as possible we used Mod_Frontpage, an Apache module which allows the Frontpage client to be used," says Boon. He says that by separating the authoring component from the backend they eliminated the need to retrain editors.
They then put Apache at the front of the system so all the users 'talked' only to Apache. The DNS also pointed only to the Apache server and Apache did the work of deciding which bits of content would come from itself, and which bits of content it would proxy and get from the legacy server. "So we achieved a seamless migration for the users," says Boon.
So what sort of problems did the switch-over cause?
One was case-sensitivity, says Boon. GNU/Linux, like its Unix predecessor, tends to be case-sensitive. "We used the Apache module called mod_speling -- which allows people to misspell the URL a bit, and yet gives you the page which it thinks is right," says Boon, explaining their workaround.
Another challenge, he says, was bookmarks. "You can't go around 3000 PCs and edit bookmarks. To solve this they used the mod_proxy and mod_rewrite Apache modules to rewrite a whole lot of filenames from filename.asp to filename.php.
The other challenge was deciding on wether to re-write the applications in PHP or to use a tool such as asp2php to convert the applicaitons. With concerns that a straight conversion might cause unforseen problems the team opted to re-create the code using Smarty templates. "Using Smarty Templates we felt we had a very rapid application development anyway. Smarty Templates are templates within PHP which enables you to develop code very quickly," says Boon.
What were the motives for Oxfam to switch to free software?
"Convergence," says Boon. "We had an open source Internet platform and wanted to standardise on one platform. We did have some philosophical debates but in terms of which way to move we had to jump one way or another. There were fairly strong views but what won it over was that the content people wanted the open source platform. And we could show on
the backend that Apache was the market leader and had a better history of security."
So, although the philosophy behind free software was a motivating factor it wasn't the deciding factor.
Does Oxfam plan to expand its use of FLOSS?
"For web-based stuff we're building on that platform. We're moving to a document-content management system based on Zope-Plone and also having single sign-ons with the mod_pub cookie. So people could enter their sign-on once, and across all partner sites, could get personalised content and the benefits of security," explains Boon.

INFO>>>>>
Headlining the main room for this instalment is pioneer of electro and tech sounds, Billy Nasty. Techno scene originator, globe trotting DJ superstar, maker of many a mix CD, boss of both Tortured and Electrix record labels, Billy has done it all, the lucky sod! Having held dancefloors firmly in the palm of his hand for more than 15 years, Billy does the bizniz.
Continuing the Electrix records theme with something of a label showcase are Transparent Sound. Not lacking in experience themselves, Orson Bramley & Martin Brown formed in 1994 and have since been pushing their distinctive electro sound, experimenting with techno, acid and whatever else takes their fancy. Mr Bramley is also behind the superb Orson label which put out some of Point B’s finer moments last year. The boys bring the toys for a full live set, likely resulting in much jollity for all concerned.
Also playing live is nuclear physicist and general man of much knowledge and bass, Tim Wright. With a series of phenomenal releases for Novamute lauded as a new direction for dance, and following singles raising the bar again and again, Tim returns to ALT*CTRL for a third time armed to the sideburns with hot hot new material.
It’s not all electronica though, as world travelled drumming troupe Shorio are added to the mix. Their live show consists of three percussionists playing a huge array of instruments from all over the globe, combining pumping funk with subtle shades, matching dazzling skill and dexterity with emphatic creativity to coax unbelievable noises from their instruments. This is a real special show for Shoria as they are adding a vocalist to the ensemble, and flying a member over from South Africa specially for the gig, they’re promising a show not to be missed!
Another ALT*CTRL favourite, Debasser returns after missing his last ALT*CTRL gig due to an unfortunate “being really hammered” incident. On the orange juice this time, Jon will be showcasing his floor quaking UK bass sound and making the ladies swoon in his inimitable style. And wrapping things up will be birthday boy and beastly music connoisseur El Kano from the Ad Cam crew, whose been getting the nod from those who know for his uncompromising sets across the country.
AS IF all that were not delectable enough, the bar is packed full of friends and fiends from Combat Records, Adverse Camber, and the bushes near the Ritzy in Brixton (Ferrel Child).
And lest we forget, the mighty ALT*CTRL Soundsystem will be playing across both rooms at key points in the night, blending all the above together and baking it in a technological oven till it is done to perfection!
We’re hitting the airwaves next week with a guest mix on Saytek’s new weekly Vybe FM show, going out at 1am on 16/02/06, tune in on 99.5FM if you’re in west or central London, else via the web at www.vybefm.com. The show promises to feature some great live sets and mixes, one to keep an eye on.
More dates and new mixes out soon, but for now, see you on the 25th!
