Consider completing an open source software IdeaScale:
http://libraryideaforum.ideascale.com/
A few friends and I are doing some investigations regarding open source software and libraries. Through the process we have made a number of assertions, such as but not limited to:
* Libraries need an easy to manage open source Google-like search
* There is a critical mass of OSS to do much of library work
* Libraries should become sources of safe open source software
Using the IdeaScale tool we can garnder from a wider audience -- such as yourselves -- the validity of these assertions. Just click "thumbs up" if you agree or "thumbs down" if you disagree. Add a comment and/or additional assertion if you desire. Instant feedback. A way to gague community interest.
Give it a whirl?
