It seems that most lodges don't have great technology infrastructure. Whether it's websites, wireless microphones, or wireless, most lodges I've seen seem to lack. This even includes some grand lodges. There are obviously exceptions, like this site, but the general rule seems to be that Masons don't have good tech.
Has this been other people's experience, or is it just me? I'm curious because I tried searching for Masonic software, or blog posts on fraternal organizations and texh or infrastructure and came up with nothing of substance. I think there is a huge hole here that needs to be filled, and am curious if that is true.
On a related note, I'm redoing my Lodge's wireless network "properly" and documenting it for future generations. After that will be documenting the building, it's maintenance, procedures, etc using standard open source tools to fascilitate. I'm curious if anyone wants to form a working group around things like this to support lodges all around. Like a subset of open source for support of lodges and their members. Best practices, etc.
