Is the target audience Scouts, Troop leaders (software and resources for 
running a troop), or general interest?

I would avoid emphasizing the term OSS (or any TLA, really).  Many 
people won't know what it means and it also has multiple expansions.  I 
do like OpenSourceScouting.org though since it aludes to OSS without 
relying on it.  Or perhaps something simpler like OpenScouting.org?
Here's an anti-suggestion: ScoutForge.net (ugh!)
