Muraya, I shall send my ICT head, Esther to share with you our plans in terms of promoting open development in providing solutions to Govt. Regards Ndemo.
Dear All,
There are those who meet at cocktails to make policies or cut deals and those who live on coffee to convert these policies or deals into (software) code = information systems.
It must be said that www.information.go.ke, www.ict.go.ke and other government departments have come a long way in opening up to us but ...
Bureaucracy and political intrigues still keep many of our government departments from building even simple information and transactional systems to increase transparency and efficiency.
Who in government can join us the morning of November 7, 2009 to enlighten us more on how we can help the government personnel or IT companies required to build these systems? Kenya ICT Board CEO? The PS (Dr. Ndemo)?
This will not be an anti Microsoft meet but we need an informed Kenyan FOSS luminary to provide balance that day. Alex Gakuru?
Location: We have not decided yet. Maybe Silver Springs Hotel, Panafric or Jacaranda!
Kind regards
SMM
