Technical Standards in Government “Camp”
This will be a unconference (sometimes called a “bar camp”) event for developers working with open standards. We will be focusing on API standards, Data standards and Web standards.
We want implementers to join us – engineers/developers, systems designers and architects who are working with technology standards as they are building platforms and systems across government.
Please come with ideas for sessions that you'd like to see. Some examples might be: API authentication standards; emerging web standards for security; data schemas for open data. The format of the sessions will be directed discussion and notes will be taken and published. If you propose a session please be prepared to lead the discussion as well.
The goals of the workshop are: share best practice knowledge across groups; engender and initiate a longer-term community around these topics; learn from your colleagues about projects utilising standards and about how government works with open standards organisations.
We will be publishing the minutes of the sessions.
