Birmingham Leads The Way By Establishing The National Open Centre

OpenForum Europe warmly welcomes the establishment of the UK National Centre for Open Source and looks forward to collaborating closely with it.

The UK national centre for open source and open standards is being established in Birmingham, West Midlands. The National Open Centre (NOC) will be a home for strategic thinking about open source and open standards (OS&S) in the UK. For the first time the UK will debate and develop policies to benefit from the strategic use of OS&S.
