ChangeLab

From $1

We can use this space to discuss possibilities and requirements for supporting developers at ChangeCamp Ottawa.

The model will be loosely based on ChangeCampTO_Event/Event_Design/ChangeCampTO_ChangeLAB.

Budget Project

We have our first specific technology project, which since it involves technology we're associating with the ChangeLab brand.  There's more information at ChangeCamp_Ottawa/ChangeLab/BudgetProject.

Logistics

* what kind of setup would you like to see to support this?  a dedicated room?  what do we need to provide - just wifi and power, or laptops and facilitators as well?

* how do you see this integrating with the main event - do you want a structured stream of developer-related meetings, or just a space where developers can run off (perhaps grabbing the appropriate players) when they have an inspiration?

* would you like to see the results presented at the end of day?  should there be a prize or other contest structure?

Background Information

See Jennifer Bell's presentation http://www.slideshare.net/jenniferbe...overnment-data for an idea of what is possible.

Another model is the government contest from the city of Washington, DC - http://www.appsfordemocracy.org/
