Dear @Crystal,
You are absolutely correct on your participation if the Association was formed. So far, I've just listed the basic technology aspect, however the final structure, in my general view will have these:
- Chair Person : A visionary and someone who does NOT own a company or a business that can or will benefit from the industry, position, awareness or whilst in contact with various organizations in whatever manner. Nor has any vested interests in govt, private sector. This will be compulsory as the rot of vested interests is the rot that this country must do without. We will have to find this selfless individual.
- Advisory Panel : Legal, Developer and Social.
- Marketing, Awareness and PR Panel : Visionaries who can turn "Made in Kenya: The rest is competition!" into a brand.
- Accounts and Auditing Panel : Financial Advisors and Auditors
- Research and Visionary Panel : Kenyan Software Companies, Developers and those who share a common goal and targets
- Developer Teams, or Individuals.
To me, the creation of this Assocation must come from us all, that is the primary reason that I started this thread. When we are done discussing the necessary ways ahead, have a concrete document to support any structure, have a vision on how we want to achieve this, then I believe we are ready for thr first step i.e the formation of the association.
Rgds. :-)

It is great to see everyone's input.
As you know I am not a developer or hardcore techie like my brothers and sisters here, but for someone in programs and projects like me, I depend on and 150% support the creation of local software.
When it comes time to set up the structure of the organization, I am able to assist.
When will there be the first meet up for the idea?
Crystal
