[OSGeo-Discuss] OpenCitySmart

[Hogan, Patrick (ARC-PX)]

Dear OSGeo,

The Open Source Geospatial approach is the essential 'cooking' method 
for any master chef interested in sustainable world-class cuisine. 

An OSGeo OpenCitySmart app could well serve as a seed crystal 
to engage cities in collectively advancing urban management capabilities, 
needs that are essentially the same for every other city on the planet.

Affluent cities could fund development of capabilities 
that would directly benefit other 'less endowed' cities around the world.

The DelBianco Foundation of Florence Italy is funding development of OpenCitySmart.
The premier release will take place next month in Florence, on March 12-13.

And GODAN is also moving in this direction! www.godan.info
