Kimo -- I believe they are using Fedora as the repository. I imagine if you contacted the law school they'd be able to get you in touch with the folks behind the project.

Thanks for these comments. On re-reading my post, I think I should have framed the question differently. It's safest to assume that there's no funding at all. In fact, better to think of this as a hypothetical. You are the leader of the Free State…

Joe, It sounds like what you're really looking for a "Decision Service", or more commonly called a "Rules Engine". If you're looking for an Open-Source solution, the most common choice would be Drools (now called JBoss Rules). It's rather Spartan,…

Open Source legislation?

I'm working on a project pro-bono (yes, as in "free beer") for a state department with a very interesting problem. How many programs (as in "food stamps", not as in "vim") do you think the state offers? I don't know either, but I know there are plenty. How many people in the state actually understand the rules used to administer these programs? Far fewer than you think. The rules are complex even when they can be understood and reconciled with each other, which isn't always.

E komo mai Joe! We hope you had a nice weekend. We have one other NOAA person on TechHui, Sunny Bak.

The FAQ is a good place to learn about the site. You may want to join some of the interest groups.

We hope you find TechHui useful and invite others. Happy coding!
