Hello list.
I may have a collaboration avenue for Debian-lex if interested. My name is Skip Smith and I am a Network Engineer for a mid-sized Law Firm in Indianapolis, Indiana USA. I am involved with ILTA (International Legal Technology Association) www.peertopeer.org. In particular I am a member of the Open Source Software Peer Group Steering Committee. One of the projects I am trying to invigorate is the Lawnix project (www.lawnix.org). Lawnix is a project sponsored by ILTA. The mission of Lawnix is very similar to the mission of Debian-Lex so I was wondering if we might be able to somehow collaborate with each other to help Open Source solutions gain a foothold in the Legal vertical market.
It is my vision to create several packages that can be added to an existing Debian system and eventually to produce a full distribution that includes all of the customized packages. While I have been implementing Open Source solutions for many years I have never undertaken anything quite like this. I do believe it is possible, but it is going to take a lot of time and effort, so I thought I might see if we could help one another. If you are interested please advise (I do have many more ideas on how we can help each other).
Thank You,
Skip B. Smith
