OSS Watch held the first Community Workshop for JISC projects in St Hugh’s College. The main focus was on open communities, how to build them and what benefits they provide.
Welcome to the OSS Watch team blog, where you can read the personal views of individual OSS Watch team members.
This makes the content here quite different from the materials published on the OSS Watch site. Those materials go through a rigorous quality assurance process to ensure they are balanced, as is required from a service intended to facilitate informed decision. Here there are no restrictions on what can be posted, individual opinion and even free thought (shock!) is encouraged, but often challenged.
We hope you enjoy learning about the individual interests and positions of our team members. Furthermore, we hope you will use the comment facility to tell us when you think we have it wrong.







Thanks for the pictures Ramon.
The day was a real success. It was intended as a pilot to see if the projects present felt this was worthwhile. From the feedback forms and the post workshop communications we have had it clearly was a success. We will, almost certainly, be running similar events in the future.
