OSGEO: New York May Need A Kick

New York now has the New York City Open Source Solutions Lab. It’s goal is “to show how open-source software can help local and state government agencies in New York state cope with tightening budgets and a difficult economic outlook.”

It’s a collaborative project of Linux vendor Red Hat Inc., the City University of New York and Intel Corp. Government IT staff can come and test apps and code at the facility in Manhattan at CUNY’s Institute for Software Design and Development

Listed apps/tasks to be explored include: “Red Hat Linux, JBoss SOA applications and clustering, global file systems and virtualization systems.” How about some GIS to with that?
