[Open-Legislation] at4am+pippi+pt+pm at OKF?

Sun Sep 2 10:19:03 UTC 2012

Hello,

I wonder if there will be anyone talking about at4am+pippi+pt+pm at OKF? Or parts of that EU transparency package?

This would be particularly important since the upcoming decision on at4am opens up for integration between an EP-native application and Pippi Longstrings, Par Track and Political Memory etc.

Each of us is of course most aware about the projects we and our friends are involved in, but I would really like to see someone talk about the projects that have been driving digital activism at the EU level for quite some time now.

I blogged about it here:

	Taking "utmost transparency" to the next level - at4am for all!
	http://blog.okfn.org/2012/06/27/taking-utmost-transparency-to-the-next-level-at4am-for-all/

and there has been meetings with EPFSUG on the matter:

	The hacker perspective on lawmaking
	http://epfsug.eu/blog-entry/hacker-perspective-lawmaking

The at4am decision has even been pushed by FSFE:

	Helping the European Parliament to release its own Free Software
	https://fsfe.org/news/nl/nl-201208.en.html

I might be a bit EU centric since I work in the EP, but I am sure OKF organisers would agree that what happens in the EP matters more to more people than what many people might know (or like).

Best regards.

//Erik
