Drupalcon Attendees Come Together To Build Help4ok.org In 24 Hours

Falc0n writes "Many of us don't have to look too far back to recall the impact of a natural disaster: Sandy, Chelyabinsk, Lushan, and now Oklahoma. When they occur there is typically no shortage of assistance available, but coordination is always a major challenge. In a very open source way, about 60 open source developers, designers, and sys admins came together to build a scalable tool to help those affected by the tornado. If you're interested in helping the effort, join us in irc.freenode.net #drupal4ok"

With all due respect...

With all due respect to these talented, compassionate people, nothing short of anotherfuckingplacetolive.com* is going to cut it.

OK, a person with the handle "For a Free Internet" posts praising a regime that heavily restricts its populations access to the Internet. Make up your mind, do you support totalitarian control over all aspects of people's lives, including what information they can access, or do you support a free Internet? Or by "free Internet" do you really mean someone else pays for your access to the Internet?
I always wonder why these people who praise Cuba so much don't move there.

One effort already

For contribution or inspiration, there is already Sahana - IIRC there was a php version and a rewrite using the very well thought out python framework web2py.
