OpenSourcery

It's no secret that OpenSourcery supports transparent and easily accessible public data. We're working to help all levels of government make public data available so that developers can create useful applications and citizens can better inform themselves. The technology is available, and we're seeing increased energy behind the project.

Which brings us to "Trust the Vote! Program," a "public digital works project" of the Open Source Digital Voting Foundation. The OSDV Foundation is a Silicon Valley-based public benefits corporation whose mission is to work to restore trust in how America votes through the design, development, and demonstration of open source digital voting technology.

Yeah, that's right. Join us for this introduction and learn a few important things, like:

* The project's development work so far
* Opportunities for systems architects, software developers, SDQA/test specialists, and user experience designers
* Development philosophies and approaches, including experience-driven design and test-driven agile development

And more. The event is free and open to the public. So bring a friend, make a friend, learn how to make a difference.

Join us on Wednesday, February 18th from 6pm until 7:30pm at CubeSpace

OpenSourcery is excited to officially announce its sponsorship of GOSCON, the Government Open Source Conference organized by the good people at the Open Source Lab and Oregon State University. GOSCON emerged in 2005 as a forum to explore the business case and real-world applications for open technology to deliver the next generation of government services. This year's theme is "Transforming the Delivery of Government Services," with a special emphasis on Open Public Health IT. Of course, as the creators of the open source Electronic Medical Records (EMR) application elementalClinic (emC), we have a lot to add.

This year is poised to be the best event yet, drawing participation from government agencies, vendors, contractors and suppliers from the U.S. and abroad. Recently announced keynote speaker Aneesh P. Chopra is the Secretary of Technology for the Commonwealth of Virginia. He presentation is entitled "Building a Culture of Innovation and Productivity Through Collaboration."

Look for OpenSourcery at GOSCON: we'll be busy demonstrating our own open source contributions to the government sector.

GOSCON takes place at the Crowne Royal Hotel here in Portland. This year's event begins October 20 with the new "International Open ICT Summit." The core program takes place October 21-22 (read the program), and look for the field trip and tour of Oregon State University’s Open Source Lab on October 23.
