> I once work with a local government unit and was so frustrated with the
goverment policy in IT. All of the the approval of any IT plan should be
under the approval and scrutiny of NCC. So any goverment entity IT plan
should have an Itegrated System Plan(ISP) that has the approval of NCC. I do
not know if NCC have a policy or open mind for the open-source.
But if we can get DOST & ASTI to support this project, well I think NCC will
follow.
> But another option for this is to lobby in congress by soliciting support
of IT oriented congressmen and senators by providing them with an
open-source agenda that can be drafted into law. THis may not be also easy
to work with as this will go againts the propriatary interest of those
involved in close source group, so dont be surprise if payola will flow like
champagne.
Naku, this will involve politics! Pork Barrel pa nga lang nahihirapan na
sila! = )
> I also use to attend GO for IT before, its nothing but junket and waste of
peoples money, its all but product presentations, very frustarting indeed.
We have to attend because the order came from the Office of the Executive
Secretary.
Well, I'm not a member of GO-IT. Ka-ek-ekan lang 'yan! Alam ko kasing
walang akong freedom to express my ideas dyan eh! Buti pa dito sa PLUG!
