IDLELO2 CONFERENCE ON THE DIGITAL COMMONS
by Bill Kagai 23 Jan '06

23 Jan '06

THE SECOND IDLELO CONFERENCE ON THE DIGITAL COMMONS www.fossfa.net/idlelo2 [ENTRENCHING THE SOFTWARE INDUSTRY IN AFRICA] 23RD-25TH FEBRUARY, 2005 SAFARI PARK HOTEL The Free Software and Open Source Foundation for Africa (FOSSFA) in collaboration with The Kenya e-Government Directorate in the Office of the President together with the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) are pleased to announce the Second IDLELO Conference on the Digital Commons to be held at the Safari Park Hotel from 23rd to 25th February 2006. IDLELO is derived from a Zulu word for a common grazing ground. Software has become an integral part of modern life. Today, basic items such as Mobile Phones, Computers and TVs to complex equipment such as Motor Vehicles, Industrial Plants and Telecommunication infrastructure all rely on software to run their core functions. The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) E-Commerce 2004 Report estimates the software industry generates yearly revenues in excess of US$300 billion. Developing Countries now have a real chance in participating in the industry using community shared software commonly referred to as Free & Open Source Software (FOSS). FOSS is software that has made its source code free and public and allows - perhaps even motivates - users to change the source code and redistribute the derivative software. While liberating the source code is a goal in itself, FOSS encourages, or even obliges, programmers to give other programmers and users those same freedoms and opportunities. The increased use of FOSS is sustainable development, because FOSS is a technology that the local people (in Africa or anywhere) can understand, maintain, and adapt to their needs. It also creates new opportunities for employment and wealth creation. To demonstrate how FOSS can generate revenues especially for the youth, the IDLELO Key Note Speaker will be Mr. Mark Shuttleworth from Ubuntu/Canonical, UK, a renowned youthful entrepreneur who made his fortune through FOSS based business. He will also present a motivational speech on how he achieved his childhood dreams of going to the outer space by paying US$20 Million to become the First Space Tourist to the NASA Space Station. Other Confirmed High Level Speakers will include inter alia; • Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN Under Secretary General, Executive Secretary, Economic Commission for Africa, UNECA, Ethiopia • Dr. Juma Oketch, ICT Secretary, Directorate of e-Government, Office of the President, Kenya • Sir John Daniel, the Director General of Commonwealth of Learning (COL), Canada • Ms. Zaheda Bhorat, Open Source Unit, Google, USA • Ms. Danese Cooper, Open Source Innovation Unit, Intel, USA • Professor Henry Moses Thairu, MD, Jomo Kenyatta University Enterprises, Kenya • Bildad Kagai, CEO, Circuits & Packets Communications Ltd, Kenya The objectives of this conference are to stimulate a local Software Industry in Africa and bring together Practioners, Decision Makers, FOSS Software Developers and the General Public to learn how FOSS can be of relevance to their sectors. This conference targets Key Decision/Policy Makers in African Governments with emphasis on The Central Government/E-Government Teams, Education and Health, FOSS/Linux User Groups National Leaders and Leading FOSS Industry Players from the Private Sector. This conference has been made possible through support from: 1. Directorate of e-Government, Office of the President, Kenya 2. United Nations Economic Commission of Africa, Ethiopia 3. InWEnt - Capacity Building International, Germany 4. Hivos, Humanist Institute for Development Cooperation, Netherlands 5. Ubuntu Linux, UK 6. Google Inc. USA 7.

Regards, David. _____ HYPERLINK "http://allafrica.com/" \nallAfrica.com Parliament Website Remains Closed January 18, 2006 Posted to the web January 17, 2006 Francis Openda Nairobi Kenya is the only East African country without a website for its Parliament. The National Assembly's official website was shut down last September after The Standard published education backgrounds, hobbies, ages and other details of MPs from the site. The site was shut down after complaints that the information was "too sensitive" and that MPs had been embarrassed. Posted on the website, http://www.parliament.go.ke , are the words: "Thank you for visiting the Parliament website. We are currently updating this site. Please bookmark this site and visit us shortly." The site, which was on a test run, was shut before the launch, set for last September. Kenya's Parliament now lags behind its Ugandan and Tanzanian counterparts, which have websites that have detailed information on MPs. They detail MPs' employment history, political experience and special skills. The sites also tabulate MPs' performance in Parliament in terms of questions raised and their contributions. Also included are parliamentary documents such as Bills, Acts, Order Papers and transcripts of proceedings. The sites also contain a summary of development funds and ministry activities. Also posted on the sites are proceedings of committee meetings, which are still a closed-door affair in Kenya. The public is also given an opportunity to post comments on the websites.
