Transparency is so '08: Why treating data as code & collaboration are the next frontier for open gov

Question: Open government is a great first step, but how can we push towards collaborative government, the world's largest and longest-running open source project

Background

• What differentiates open source from transparency is collaboration: the essential promise that you can see the underlying source code and make things better.
• PDF of excel spreadsheets are technically transparency, but that's really not good enough.
• A central promise of open source is not just to see the process, but participate and be able to modify source
• Nothing -> FOIA -> Open Gov -> (Collaborative Gov?)

What's a GitHub?

GitHub is a social network for software developers. Similar to how networks like Facebook and Twitter allow people to connect, organize, and comment on updates, GitHub allows you to share source code and other technical materials you're working on and benefit from the input and contributions of others.

GitHub is a social layer built on top of a long-standing open source project called Git. At its most basic level, Git simply tracks who made what change when. While it was originally used for collaborative software development, and still is, the workflow is equally applicable to countless applications including modern open data and open government efforts.

GitHub hosts projects, commonly referred to as repositories, which belong to and are managed by organizations, typically tracking to government agencies. While you can always control who has access to your content, if your project is publicly accessible, as is most common within government, at any time, anyone can submit a proposed impro
