OpenZA is a free community networking site for African free and open source fans. The site is managed and run by Tectonic, SA’s open source news site, which in turn is run by Alastair Otter.
OpenZA is still in its evolutionary stage and so not all of the proposed features of the site are working yet but expect them to in the near future. For help on using OpenZA see the getting started and help pages.
OpenZA runs on a combination of WordPress MU and BuddyPress, a collection of greeat plugins that turn a blogging platform into a social networking site.
