OSS Startegic Thrust - Discussion Group

OSS Startegic Thrust - Discussion Group

Salam sejahtera & good morning,

We would like to share with you on the following development :-

1. Once again, we wish to extend our sincere appreciation to those participated in our Strategic Thrust (ST) workshops previously and we hope you be able to contribute further.

2. We have created a mailing list, st at lists.oscc.org.my incorporating ST Lead and Participating Agencies names. Please encourage the others to joint this ST community by subscribing to http://lists.oscc.org.my/mailman/listinfo/st and wait for email confirmation. Relevant information with regards to ST will be disseminated through this mailing list.

3. OSS ST Discussion Group (OSTDG) http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/practice-areas/forum/strategic-thrusts now available for all Strategic Thrusts participants, build using our Knowledge Bank http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/

4. The OSTDG http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/practice-areas/forum/strategic-thrusts is open to all ST agencies and anybody interested to participate.

5. In order to participate in this forum, please register to our Knowledge Bank at http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/join_form first, wait for confirmation, and then go to the OSTDG forum site at http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/practice-areas/forum/strategic-thrusts to start.

6. OSTDG http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/practice-areas/forum/strategic-thrusts objective is to enable the ST Lead and Participating agencies to virtually communicate and discuss respective ST action plans and activities. This would create an avenue for us to be better prepared for the next ST Workshop and other events.

7. OSCC is the moderator for the OSTDG http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/practice-areas/forum/strategic-thrusts and we will keep on contributing materials for discussion.

What if Public sector software systems were open source?

What if Public sector software systems were open source?

http://linuxuser32.wordpress.com/2008/12/30/what-if-public-sector-software-systems-were-open-source/

The building of and use of open source software systems in the public sector sounds promising. There are many interesting aspects to this topic.

The public sector includes local authorities, health boards, police forces, the fire service, primary and secondary education, etc. It can be argued that they share common processes which have supporting software systems, between regions for a common organisation, and to some extent between organisations. For example, human resources departments provides payroll services, a Hospital has numerous data-entry systems to support wards such as surgery and oncology, local authorities have systems to process council tax.
