[sklug] Free/Libre/Open Source Software references in Europe

[Jeroen van Disseldorp]

L.S.,

For those who do not know me, allow me to introduce myself. My name is 
Jeroen van Disseldorp. I am writing this mail as the project manager of 
a project for the European Commission's IDA unit, which is setting up 
an Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) portal on their website. You 
can find IDA online at:

http://europa.eu.int/ISPO/ida/

The website we are creating will serve as a reference and knowledge 
management site on FLOSS activities in Europe. It is planned to 
be unveiled during the eGovOS 3 conference in Paris at the end of 
November. See http://www.egovos.org/nov-2003.

For this website we are looking for interesting FLOSS projects in 
the public sector throughout different European countries, of which the 
lessons learnt may benefit FLOSS initiatives in other countries.

Apart from doing research on the Internet, we are trying to get in 
contact with people who we think might be able to give be useful hints 
and material. Experience learns that Google still does not cover as 
much as the collective minds of people.

We would be most grateful if you could point us to public sector 
projects (or the people involved/related materials) in which FLOSS plays 
or has played an important role.

Do not hesitate to ask me more about this request or any other questions 
it may trigger.

Kind regards,
Jeroen                          mailto:jeroen.van.disseldorp na cgey.nl
