NEWS RELEASE
A local agency is set to advise organisations and businesses in the area on the biggest open secret in the IT world.
The Humberside Co-operative Development Agency has been funded by Yorkshire Forward, the regional development agency for Yorkshire and the Humber, to raise awareness of OpenSource software.
OpenSource software is free, secure, and supported by some of the world's largest software and hardware companies. The software they will be promoting includes OpenOffice, a complete office suite, Firefox, a secure web browser and Thunderbird, an email and calendar manager. Companies that are committed to open source include Dell, Hewlett Packard, Sun Microsystems and Novell.
50% of the internet runs using OpenSource software, and many large government departments and companies use open source, including Lloyds TSB, Ebay, NASA, B.T., Bristol and Birmingham Councils to name only a few.
Jon Clarke, Director of Humberside CDA said "this is a fantastic opportunity for local organisations to cut costs and not performance"
