Okay.  I think that it sounds good either way.  I agree that using the word 
education does not exclude any non-education entity from receiving donated 
hardware and services.  I also agree that using the word education could 
possibly mislead someone.  Ultimately I believe that people will know what we 
do from a mission statement and our communications within the community.


The frontrunners are emerging as:

Hawaii Foundation for Open Source Education

Hawaii Foundation for Open Source Technology

Do we need to modify this with a The?, i.e., The Hawaii Foundation ...  if we 
use Hawaii over Hawaiian?
