I have been an employee here at the Open Source Lab for nearly a year now, and can easily say that they have supported me in all of my FOSS endeavors(e.g. OLPC, OpenID). The nurturing environment has been extremely helpful to students, including myself, providing a spring board into the 'real world', helping countless students land jobs with big names like Google, Novell, Mozilla, and IBM.

While the Open Source Lab has been crucial in so many students professional lives, it has also helped some of the biggest open source projects(Linux Kernel, Gentoo, Debian, Drupal, Freenode, Mozilla, and OLPC to name a few) out there become what they are today.

The OSL is hiring a new manager type person to realize the big picture of things, and help continue the excellence of the lab. If you are looking for a great place to work and want to help out the FOSS community please take a look at the job posting.

Cheers!
