Where I work we do a lot of software development for cities ranging from websites to applications. Most cities/departments are really reluctant to bring in any new systems. regardless how much they help. So I don't see how they would be able to do so much with what will more then likely be a bunch of new developers.
They also have to go out for bids on everything..
- biggitybones 16y agoThis seems like it's trying to build public services based off of the data in the cities' systems. On top of that, I think it's more of a non-profit so I'm assuming (and perhaps incorrectly) that they'd be more welcome as a partner. My thought is this is to spread some of the openness that cities like SF and NYC (albeit at a much smaller level) have started.
