About myEWB
myEWB is Engineers Without Borders Canada's online community! We envision this online community as a place where EWB members and non-members alike can connect to discuss human development and EWB's operations. EWB is a large, distributed virtual organization and myEWB can help to keep us connected and working together effectively.
myEWB is also EWB's chapter membership management system, providing EWB chapters with automatic mailing lists and other useful tools.
myEWB is an evolving system, with new features being added all the time to support the EWB community.
In the past, features were added slowly but the system was solid and stable; however in the future we see a more agile myEWB where we can experiment and play with new ideas. This also means that things may not always work perfectly... if you find any problems, please tell us and we'll be sure to fix them ASAP!
The Software
The software powering myEWB is an open-source project: see our project page and GitHub repository. It is written in Python, using the django and pinax projects.
If you would like to contribute to the project, give us a shout!
The old version of myEWB (myEWB1 or OpenMyEWB, written in Java) is also available here.
