Summary:
"This book is a guide for people who want to get started with community technology projects, understand what their options are, learn how to find and create communities, and decide which skills to learn. For those who are already engaged with communities, it will be a guide to creating a welcoming community for new people and maintaining a motivated community in challenging times.
