I have one lament -- why can't a single government agency come up with the financial applications (AP/GL/AR/Payroll etc...) for all the government offices? Since the government has a different (weird) accounting and auditing rules, by coming up with a uniform system for all to use, rather than each agency coming up with their own, this would save a lot of tax payers money... > Open source evangelists and vendors showcase packages for gov't > application -- back-end apps, front-end apps, apps for collaboration, > e-commerce, security.
