Quote of the Week II
"I've won a lot of hands in governance with two Jacks - [ESRI President] Jack Dangermond and Jack Maple. Jack Dangermond, who advanced, forwarded, fathered modern GIS; and Jack Maple, who [was] really a genius of a guy when it [came] to policing and implementing Commissioner Bratton's vision for CompStat in New York."
- Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, quoted in an article in Government Technology about StateStat.

Is there a move away from "two techs capturing data" stories to how users can get involved with collection and update?
