Re: [Eug-lug] Fwd: IE7 @ the library

[seymoor nates]

Prob with the library's system is that it has to integrate with the 
city's core OS; it is not on its own.  So you'd either have to get them 
to disconnect from the city in order to go Open Source or else get the 
whole city to do so.

My despair came back when the library's original ulysses (unix) system 
announced they weren't going to develop beyond y2k and the City decided 
to go with Polaris (nicknamed polarisite). 

Not to discourage but to give an indication of what a bureaucratic long 
haul it will be to get anything changed, once the library had decided 
they wanted to do something about patrons having to run the gauntlet of 
street trash just to get through the doors and into the library, it took 
four years for anything to happen.
