ECLIPSE
- Eclipse is an open platform
for tool integration built by an open
community of tool providers. Operating
under a open source paradigm, with a
common public license that provides
royalty free source code and world wide
redistribution rights, the eclipse
platform provides tool developers with
ultimate flexibility and control over
their software technology. Industry
leaders Borland, IBM, MERANT, QNX
Software Systems, Rational Software,
RedHat, SuSE, TogetherSoft, and WebGain
formed the initial eclipse.org Board of
Stewards in November 2001. In March of
2002, the board unanimously voted to add
new members, Serena, Sybase and Fujitsu.
At the June 2002 meeting of the Board of
Stewards, Hitachi, Instantiations,
MontaVista, Scapa Technologies, Telelogic
and Trans-Enterprise Integration were
added to the board membership. All of
these companies have made a commitment to
releasing Eclipse Platform compatible
product offerings and to the community of
users, researchers and developers this
will foster. In the Eclipse Platform,
code access and use is controlled through
the Common Public License1,
which allows individuals to create
derivative works with worldwide
re-distribution rights that are royalty
free. As with other open source
communities, eclipse.org brings together
the broad participation needed to
establish, refine, and promote
high-quality shared software technology.
More than 1,200 individual developers
from over 150 leading software tool
suppliers in 63 countries have already
participated in the eclipse.org
community.

OPENSIF
- a collaborative project
dedicated to furthering K12 systems
integration through freely-available Open
Source solutions based on the Schools
Interoperability Framework (SIF).
Participation is open to everyone. All
software available from OpenSIF may be
downloaded and used free of charge in
accordance with the terms of our Open
Source Software License. Our Java-based
reference implementation of the Schools
Interoperability Framework includes the
OpenSIF ZIS and Agent Classes. The
OpenSIF ZIS runs as a Servlet in any J2EE
application server or container like
Jakarta Tomcat. The Agent Classes are a
thin class library for developing SIF
Agents in the Java language. In the
current 0.9.2 release, both packages
support version 1.0r1 of the SIF
Specification. Note that it has not been
possible to certify the ZIS as SIF
Compliant because no compliance test is
currently available. However, the OpenSIF
ZIS has successfully participated in
SIIA-sponsored
"connect-a-thons" integrating a
variety of K-12 applications, and an
earlier version is already deployed in
multiple SIF beta school sites. Binary
and source code distributions are
available for download. |

Open
Archives Initiative - The
Open Archives Initiative develops and
promotes interoperability standards that
aim to facilitate the efficient
dissemination of content. The Open
Archives Initiative has its roots in an
effort to enhance access to e-print
archives as a means of increasing the
availability of scholarly communication.
Continued support of this work remains a
cornerstone of the Open Archives program.
The fundamental technological framework
and standards that are developing to
support this work are, however,
independent of the both the type of
content offered and the economic
mechanisms surrounding that content, and
promise to have much broader relevance in
opening up access to a range of digital
materials. As a result, the Open Archives
Initiative is currently an organization
and an effort explicitly in transition,
and is committed to exploring and
enabling this new and broader range of
applications. As we gain greater
knowledge of the scope of applicability
of the underlying technology and
standards being developed, and begin to
understand the structure and culture of
the various adopter communities, we
expect that we will have to make
continued evolutionary changes to both
the mission and organization of the Open
Archives Initiative. |

Open
Source Schools - Mission - "To foster the
adoption and successful use of free and
open source solutions in education."
- A growing number of sites focus on free
and open source software for education.
They do a good job and we intend to point
to (link) and include them in our effort
and to assist theirs. We are adding this
site to that number for a few simple
reasons:
- To
promote the others (to be a
portal).
- To
assist in the movement to broaden
"free" and "open
source" to include more than
software.
- To
assist in the movement to bridge
rather than separate "free
software," "open source
software," "public
domain," and "open
content."
- To
give interested in free and open
source solutions a center for
learning and teaching about them.
- To
give school representatives and
developers a place to meet and
plan to help each other.
- To
give them a place to voice their
thoughts, opinions, experiences,
observations, reflections,
how-to's recommendations,
questions, diatribes,
announcements and requests about
free and open source software and
content, and, above all,
- To
view all software and content in
terms of how well they might
assist in, or improve the ease,
affordability and effectiveness
of, the educational process in
schools.

Liberty
Alliance - The basic element of a
community is the notion of identity.
Technology exists today to create,
manage, and authenticate online
identities and broker services based on
information related to that identity. The
Liberty Alliance Project is an alliance
formed to deliver and support a federated
network identity solution for the
Internet that enables single sign-on for
consumers as well as business users in an
open, federated way. Federated network
identity represents the natural evolution
of the next generation of the Internet.
The first waves of the Internet, namely
communications, global access, commerce,
and community identity, gave us a
pervasive user medium that has largely
been relegated to one-to-one,
customer-to-business relationships and
experiences. The inflection point
starting the Internet's next wave will be
marked by an era of open, federated
identity with promises of bold new
business taxonomies and opportunities,
coupled with economies of scale that,
until recently, were simply unimaginable.
Federated
network identity will enable the next
generation of the Internet: federated
commerce. In a federated view of the
world, a person's online identity, their
personal profile, personalized online
configurations, buying habits and
history, and shopping preferences are
administered by users, yet securely
shared with the organizations of their
choosing. A federated network identity
model will enable every business or user
to manage their own data, and ensure that
the use of critical personal information
is managed and distributed by the
appropriate parties, rather than a
central authority.

No
Child Left Behind Website - On Jan. 8, 2002,
President Bush signed into law the No
Child Left Behind Act of 2001
(NCLB). This new law represents his
education reform plan and contains the
most sweeping changes to the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) since
it was enacted in 1965. It changes the
federal government's role in
kindergarten-through-grade-12 education
by asking America's schools to describe
their success in terms of what each
student accomplishes. The act contains
the President's four basic education
reform principles: stronger
accountability for results, increased
flexibility and local control, expanded
options for parents, and an emphasis on
teaching methods that have been proven to
work. |

to:
- Nurture
communication of best
practices, new
technologies, and
innovative methodologies
and projects related to
Java
- Increase
peer review,
collaboration, and group
discussion related to
institution-developed

MIT Open Courseware
Initiative (OCW) - At a press
conference on April 4, 2001, MIT
announced its commitment to make the
materials from virtually all of its
courses freely available on the World
Wide Web for non-commercial use. This new
initiative, called MIT OpenCourseWare
(OCW), reflects MIT's institutional
commitment to disseminate knowledge
across the globe. We see OCW as a way to
share our thinking about the content of a
modern curriculum in all the areas in
which MIT excels. Users of the OCW site
may include other academics around the
world and individual learners who may not
have access to similar educational
materials. The task of creating a highly
visible web site that draws together the
materials of virtually all of MIT's
course offerings is considerable.
However, the majority of faculty support
this effort and believe that it is
consistent with MIT's long-standing
objective to focus the contributions of
both its faculty and its new technologies
on broad, societal benefits. |

member states established the context for
their work together and agreed to remain
in touch through weekly e-mail updates
and conference calls. |
