A number of NASA employees participated - nearly all of them Gen Y.  I should note up front that these folks who attended are, as a group, rather sharp, energetic, and passionate about what they do.  Alas, they did not announce this event in advance such that anyone could have known it was happening - much less participate. I made multiple requests immediately after this event in June for a summary of what NASA personnel did at the event and what was developed. I got vague replies that something would be sent to me. Despite these requests NASA provided me with nothing.  After waiting 2 months, I sent yet another request today to Robbie Schingler (who now works for NASA CTO Bobby Braun), one of the organizers today. He pointed me to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/offices\/ocio\/ittalk\/07-2010_rhok.html\" target=\"blank\">this link<\/a> which has been online since 1 July 2010. What a surprise. <\/p><p>It would seem that <i>\"open government\"<\/i> at NASA HQ really means <i>\"we'll get back to you - maybe\"<\/i>.  Schingler's excuse was that he  has been <i>\"busy\"<\/i>. So sorry to hear that.  So, I guess in the future, I need to check this corner of the CIO office website on my own everyday just in case something shows up. When it comes to activities such as this the Gen Y digerati at NASA have yet to figure out how to issue press releases, email advisories, etc. or respond to taxpayer (stakeholder) inquiries.  And the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rhok.org\/\">sole link<\/a> on this NASA summary sends me to a page that provides zero information on the projects that these NASA folks worked on.  Maybe I'll ask Robbie about this when he speaks at the IT summit next week.<\/p><p>Why do these things in secret  such that no one knows what the result is?  More closed openness from NASA Gen Y digerati.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/nasawatch.com\/archives\/2010\/06\/more-closed-ope.html\">More Closed Openness at NASA HQ<\/a>, earlier post<\/p><p>    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/euvolution.com\/futurist-transhuman-news-blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-o-matic\/cache\/5dcd4_TWnVQwOAPhA\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" style=\"padding-left:10px; padding-right: 10px;\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keith's note: In June 2010 OSTP held an event \"Hacking for Humanity\" in Washington, DC.
