19. Open source – What do we hope to gain? - Based on existing solutions - Transparency - More competition, potentially - More with less - OOS-projects leads to standardization

20. Ownership - Take ownership of development - Give back to the community - Ask for OSS as a customer

26. The future Two releases a year 2-4 meetings Common public component? Activity on the web Mobility?

27. About me A part of the danish Ubuntu community for, like, ever Geographer Works with GIS in the Ringsted Municipal Administration

28. First impressions Positive Open Source (Yay!) Community based (Woo!!) People behind seem to 'get' community. Not so positive Hard to find information Seemingly non- active/responsive forum No technical support forum to speak of.

29. Hard to find information Documents on digitaliser.dk: A project description A list of contributors Scribbled notes from two meetings

30. Hard to find information (2) Documents on wiki Adminstrator documentation (setup) Developer documentation (coding standards) Promises, promises, promises: What is ShowMap? Guide for new contributors Roadmap (outdated)

31. Non-active/responsive forum Forum on digitaliser.dk 10 threads since december 2010 5 of them has no responses

32. No technical support forum Way of support: Through your supplier Which is fine for your company's installation. But not for testing and/or private purposes

33. Various whining Runs only on Windows (.NET) No ”Installation for Dummies”-guide (ie. targetted at ME).

34. Recommendations An introduction to where to find resources and how to interact with the community in general. Basic installation guide Encouraging use of the forum  ”Open Sourcing” the technical support from the suppliers

35. Success
