Today, the citizen experience for many individuals includes, but is not limited to, voting, lobbying, and complaining about “government.” In the United States, the “government” includes citizens. For the people, by the people. But many of us let our busy lives and many times, politics, get in the way, distract us, or turn us off. |
... |
Think about your own experiences with government. How have you been disappointed? What could be better? How could your interactions be enhanced? |
... |
Our experience with government could be so much better. We have ideas on how to improve the communities we live in or fix a part of our government that isn’t working correctly or efficiently. But do we have the tools, knowledge, time, information, or access needed to make these improvements? |
... |
Improving the citizen experience means that your interactions with government are more participatory and collaborative. And that starts with having a more transparent, open, and inviting government. This book will explore Raleigh’s path to what I call an “open source city” and how the open government movement in Raleigh has accelerated over the last two years with the passing of an open government resolution, two successful CityCamp Raleigh events, and the forming of a Code for America brigade. |
... |
First, I will define the elements of an open source city and demonstrate how Raleigh has applied those characteristics. We’ll explore the open source culture, government policies, events, and economic development. Then we’ll take a look at how open government is applied and some of the things I’ve learned through my travels. |
... |
This book draws on my open government experience and includes articles I’ve written and interviews conducted for opensource.com–an online publication and community exploring how the principles of the open source development model are applied to disciplines such as business, education, government, health, law, and life. |
... |
I’ve been employed by Red Hat since 2003, gaining ten years of open source experience. I’ve worked on opensource.com, described as a community service by Red Hat, since the project launched in January 2010. I have many roles at opensource.com including project manager, content curator, community manager, contributor, and lead administrator. |
... |
Opensource.com aspires to publish all of their content under Creative Commons, and there are a number of articles and interviews originally published there that I've incorporated into this book. This book itself would not be possible without Creative Commons–a set of licenses that grant copyright permissions for creative works like this. |
... |
The purpose of this book is to tell Raleigh’s open source story and inspire others not only to participate, but to run with their ideas and improve our government. I want this story to be a catalyst for more open government, open data, and citizen participation, in Raleigh and beyond. |
