The Jasig Incubator
The Jasig Incubator - What's the Big Idea?
Last year Jasig began an incubation process for higher education open source projects. Since its start, a number of projects have applied for incubation, both large and small. Some of the smaller ones are useful portlets for uPortal or any other standards-compliant portal. Some of the larger projects still in incubation are OpenRegistry, an Identity Management System (IDMS) that's a place for data about people affiliated with your organization. (http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/OR/Home) and HelpDesk, an enterprise help desk application contributed by ESUP-Portail, our colleagues in France (http://www.esup-portail.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=884762). Last month we celebrated Bedework, the enterprise calendar system, for its emergence from the Incubator as an official Jasig project (http://www.bedework.org).

Jasig Strategic Planning: Soliciting Input
...
During our board meetings, we reviewed the current state of Jasig and the long-term outlook for the organization and its products. Over the next year, the Jasig board of directors will be focusing its efforts on strategic planning with the goal of long-term community sustainability and growth. There are a number of areas where Jasig would like to invest its membership income back into the organization – - infrastructure and services is just one example. Additionally, we will be analyzing ways to better align project governance, institutional/organizational membership, and community/project participation.
