Physical Participation

  • Keynote talks will take place in the Ames Conference Center ballroom. For a map of the facility, go here.
  • Break-out session room locations are listed on the agenda below.
  • Links to collaborative note-taking spaces can be found next to each breakout session below.

Note: In-person participants should bring a laptop and/or other networked device to fully participate in the ideation forum and the collaborative note-taking spaces.

This event is not your standard conference. It's a Focus Forum. A Focus Forum is an inter-agency collaborative event hosted by an agency for the purpose of innovating new thinking and capturing solutions on a specific topic. This deeper focus is the next stage in the evolution of the popular OpenGov Community Summits that were co-hosted by the DOT, USDA, NASA, Treasury, EPA, and GSA throughout 2010. You can learn more on the Open Forum Foundation website. If you are interested in hosting one at your agency, please contact Wayne Burke.

This means we're moving beyond educating attendees with speakers toward providing a structured framework for conversational problem solving. Participants are expected to fully engage in topically relevant conversations and to share expertise.

Tangible Outputs

In order to define the future of open source at NASA, the event is designed to create:

  1. A ranked list of issues pertaining to the formation of a new open source policy for the development, use, and release of open source software by NASA. The conversation has already begun, and you can join it right now on our ideation forum.
  2. Proposed solutions for each of the Issues.

All times shown are pacific standard. These agendas are subject to change up to and throughout the event. Please check back frequently as it may be impractical to provide notice of every change.
