<p><b>Join us after <a href="http://portland.cyborgcamp.com">CyborgCamp Portland</a> on Sunday, October 3rd, for an 8-hour hackathon to see who can build the best open government application in just one day!</b></p>
<p>Participation is free and open to anyone, we just ask that you register in advance so we know how many individuals or teams we need to accommodate.</p>

<ul>
<li>8:30am - Breakfast and coffee</li>
<li>12:00pm - Lunch</li>

<li>6:30pm - Prizes awarded</li>
</ul>
<h3>Who should attend?</h3>
<p>Ruby, Python, PHP, web developers, coders and anyone who has a passion to code, hack or kluge applications that will free (or otherwise enhance) the accessibility and usefulness of government-shared data.</p>
<p><b>Although the sprint takes place On Oct 3rd after CyborgCamp Portland, you don't have to be attending the conference to join us!</b></p>
<h3>Location</h3>
<p>NedSpace Old Town, 117 NW 5th between Couch and Davis.</p>

<h3>What's going to happen?</h3>
<p>There will be organizers on-site to help get things rolling. At 5:30pm, each app will be evaluated by the Hackathon Partners and prizes will be awarded to those teams or individuals that develop the best applications in the 8 hour. Participants need not show up right at 8:30am, but those who do will have the most time to code!</p>

<p>CONFERENCE
Open Gov West 2011 is a two-day nonprofit conference being held at the Jupiter Hotel in Portland May 13-14, 2011. OGW '11 is designed to bring the Northwest region together to explore opportunities to open government, increase civic engagement, and coordinate projects across governments. Now is the time to move from old models and technology to finding innovative, cost efficient, and transparent methods for accomplishing government’s core missions.The conference exposes attendees to new ideas, technologies, practices, and partnerships. The conference’s goal is to help your organization build relationships and gain insights which help you build a more transparent, engaged government.</p>
<p>APPS CONTEST
The conference also includes an app development contest on Day Two, May 14. Developers entering the Open Gov West Cross-Gov Apps Contest have the opportunity to transform government data into useful information accessible to the masses—and to win prizes like iPads, marketing assistance, and technology prize packs. Governments from across the Pacific Northwest will send representatives from their own data.gov sites to offer developers advice and support, making this a unique opportunity for developers to interact directly with government data providers while building the applications.</p>
<p>The competition will run in the style of a code-a-thon, in which development begins Saturday, May 14 at 9 a.m. with a 7 p.m. deadline, with winners announced that evening. Sponsor Tropo will be providing $1,000 in developer scholarships and free development kits for participants. Developers are encouraged to purchase a ticket through Open Gov West or apply for developer scholarships.

<p>"The White House wants you to hack for a better America. Today it announced the National Day Of Civic Hacking on June 1-2 where many government agencies will liberate data for citizens across the U.S. to use to build tech that helps their communities. Twenty-seven cities have planned events where hackers will have access to data from The Department of Labor, The Census Bureau, and even NASA’s space stats.</p>
<p>The National Day Of Civic Hacking is a joint project from the U.S. government, Code For America, Random Hacks Of Kindness, and Eric Schmidt’s early-stage venture fund Innovation Endeavors. Part of a growing initiative to increase government transparency and civic engagement,..."</p>
