consultation
1. Introduction
DWR 1.0 Purpose
The Digital Work
Environment National Program (DWR) comes from the
National Renewal Program
and is working on a digital work environment for
all civil servants of the
thirteen ministries. In the digital
environment
, all services and
information of the official for his work
needs. He may eventually (in
2015) at any time, any place and
any device (PC, PDA and
laptop) to safely dispose of the digital
information and
applications that he needs for his work.
1.1 Purpose Production
Line OpenDWR
The Production Line
OpenDWR aims to:
1. development and
management of the National Digital Work Environment
(DWR) to provide guidance
in line with government policy on open
standards and open source
software;
2. by use of generic ICT
services, departments to facilitate
in the use of open
standards and open source software.
1.2 Process
This version (0.9) of the
Production Line of a draft prepared by DWR
is. The content is in line
with first responses from departments and is now
presented for
consultation with external parties: suppliers, communities and
other interested parties.
The comment period runs
until March 1, 2010. The program welcomes your
DWR
comment via e-mail

2 Principles and
Activities OpenDWR
2.1 Principles
To achieve the above
goals is to DWR from the following 4
assumptions.
1. Interoperability
Interoperability is the
ability of (information) systems for
electronic data and
information exchange
within and between
organizations. To achieve the objectives
of the
National Renewal, such as
space and time independently
and the breaking of
existing ducts, to achieve interoperability is crucial.
2. Supplier Independence
through Open Standards
Purpose of the Production
Line for the leveranciersafhanke -
bility of reducing the
national government. Supplier
independence implies that
one product of minimal
possible product choices
affect others. Open standard
dards are critical for
vendor independence.
Besides factors such as
platform independence (eg web based
applications) and open
source software a role.
3.Gelijk field by open
source software
DWR wants all suppliers,
including suppliers of open
source software, provide
equal opportunities. Programs Requirements
Open source providers
will not harm and when
evaluation of offers will
be sufficient expertise
present an open source
based software offers good
assess.
These three principles
form the basis for all products will OpenDWR
supply. The use, implementation
and enforcement to the departments themselves
and will take place on
the basis of compliance with the following principle.
4. Business Continuity
The continuity of
departmental systems must not compromise
come. However, changes need to
be put in motion in
Under the plan NOiV. DWR supports the
departments
with best practices for
implementation of the changes. Also,
departments rely on
centrally delivered support
applying the changes
indicated below.

2.2 Activiteiten1
The following activities
are in order of priority highlighted in
consultation within the
government.
1. Open Workspace Guidelines
DWR aims to Open
Workplace Guidelines
government to develop and
manage. To achieve
DWR participates actively
in the Open Project Public Sector Workplace
by NOiV implemented.
The results of this
project will be mid-2010 for public consultation
published. In later sections can
then tender to the
crystallized Open
Workplace Guidelines are made.
The guidelines provide
principles and assumptions which guide to
future investments. The guidelines contain at
least the following
components.
a. Modular architecture:
it is a reference architecture for a
open workplace. This is not to re-think
how a workplace
it should look like, but
the architecture has the consistency of the
necessary components and
detailed principles for such
platform independence and
web-based applications based on
existing architectures
and best practices with open workstations within the
government and beyond.
b. Identification of
interfaces and open standards: based on the
architecture, the
interfaces where relevant data
place identified. On the basis of the
interfaces are relevant
open standards selected. This is made use of the
lists
established by Executive
Standardization. Missing relevant open
standards are submitted
for inclusion on the lijsten.2 It will also
National Standardization
Commission be involved.
c. Providing the 'recipe':
implementation scenarios, guidelines
and guidance for adoption
of generic devices or systems
platform independence and
openness of systems to promote
collected or developed
by DWR and available.
d. Collect examples: both
national and international good
already many examples
exist where thinking and development work done.
2. Open Directory &
Identity Management
DWR is a draft of an open
standards and open source
Open Directory based
software that can communicate with the
Active Directory. This Open Directory can
be used as replacement of the
current Active Directory
if applied next. In conjunction with the
open directory is used to
examine the open standards
for the reduced sign on
feature in Identity Management. Also
whether an open source
product can deliver the required functionality.

Version: 0.9, Status: draft for consultation
The open standards (at
least) to promote this: LDAP,
Kerberos.
3. Open templates
DWR version 1.0 from
October 1, 2009 provides an Open Document Format
plug into standard. Together with the project
1Logo examines DWR
the ability to open a
document generator
office to implement. The generator allows
standard templates in
office to open, edit and to
beat. Besides the fact that the
generator open document standards will
support the application
under an open source license released.
The switch to the ODF
standard will thus be simplified. The
open standard that
promotes this: ODF.
4. Open E-mail
A government-wide e-mail
facility is part of the original
DWR ambition. The management of DWR
seeks an e-mail facility
based on open standards
and open source software realm
achieve in 2010. The Ministries of Finance
and Defense are a pilot
started. It looks DWR from up
close. Open Standards that this
promoted: iCal, CalDAV,
IMAPv4, POP3, SMTP.
5. Rollout OpenOffice and
Firefox
Open Office and Firefox
are on July 1, 2010 as part of DWR version
1.2 Availability be made
to each department that the DWR-Client
unrolls. DWR supports as many
browsers on the client and take
browser independence as a
basis for development of the
Empire Portal. Inside DWR-Implementation
capacity and budget is allocated
a pilot of one department
to OpenOffice and Firefox to roll. Open
Standards that are
promoted this: ODF and other Web standards.
6. Functionality Work
Together
DWR is considering the
possibility of eventually open source software
commitment to the
continuity of the current
work together with
collaboration functionality to users outside the
government to facilitate.
DWR will give all the
relevant open standards in
mapping.
7. Search software
DWR is preparing a study
of innovation in search software
and review of open source
software is deployed here.
8. Content Integration
System
Departments can be both
user and provider of its content.
Departments manage their
resources in local content,
departmental systems. Finally, all publications
to the
Empire Portal to go
through the CIS. The CIS is mainly
implemented
Reducing dependency on
closed software in this domain to be.

Later publication other
channels (including open source CMS'en)
follow.
9. Electronic Learning
By providing learning
facilities for the departments
support the
implementation of services will DWR DWR
like to benefit from the
experience of the Tax open
source software in that
field.
10. VOIP
The investigation into
VOIP is actively looking at the
potential of open
standards, open source software and
the confluence with OT
2010.

3 Backgrounds
The Digital Work
Environment National Program (DWR) is working on a digital
work environment for all
civil servants of the thirteen ministries. In the digital
work environment, all
services and information that
official for his work. He may eventually (in
2015) on each
time, any place and on
any device (PC, PDA and laptop) in a safe
how have the digital
information and applications for his work
needs.
DWR will make maximum use
of existing experience in
departments, NOiV, ICTU
and Standardization Forum in open
standards and open source
software. It is the identification
of
NOiV by departmental
policy as the baseline. In addition, DWR
close cooperation with
NOiV her own experiences and documenting
publish.
In assessing the tenders
and offers to DWR will ensure
of expertise from the
Office NOiV.
The Production Line for
DWR gives direction to the implementation of open standards
and open source software.
It is not a detailed plan
of action with a plan
and financial
accountability. To implement its
resources in 2010.
Through the consultation
aims DWR committed to these resources to best effect.
DWR can not independently
achieve the intended objective. It is crucial that the
DWR program can count on
the input of the program NOiV, the Forum
Standardization, the
ministries and relevant parties in the environment, such as open source
communities and
suppliers.

3.1. Current situation DWR
The following list shows
the different products within DWR.
On October 1, 2009 is the
first version of the National Digital Work Environment
(DWR 1.0) yielded. Version 1.1 followed on
December 1, 2009. In 2010, still
two new versions (1.2 and
1.3) yielded.
Page 8 of 12
Production Line OpenDWR,
Version: 0.9, Status: draft for consultation
The DWR-Client 1.4.2010
is from six departments (max. 21,000
clients) rolled. The other workstations to
be tendered. End 2015
all departments will use
the generic ICT services for the
workplace.
The DWR products already
delivered and the products under development,
obviously not meet this
Production Line. After determining the
Production line, new
products are going to meet.
3.2 Scope of DWR
The scope of DWR can be
clarified using the following model.
This functionality is the
term used as a set of functions by
ICT supported.
Used functionality can be
separated using two dimensions. The first
dimension is about
whether a function is applied to each
business function (ie
generic functionality) or only one (limited number)
business functions (ie
specific functionality).
The second dimension is
about the extent to which the function is used:
by all employees (ie
general purpose) or by a limited group
employees (I Table C. Use
target bound).
This functionality is
divided into four categories:
1. Generic functionality for
general use,
2. Generic functionality for
target-related use,
3. Specific functionality
for general use,
4. Specific functionality
for use bound audience.
Fig 1. Scope of DWR
Page 9 of 12
Production Line OpenDWR,
Version: 0.9, Status: draft for consultation
DWR is here within the
categories of "generic general purpose" and
'generic bound target
"and the necessary links with other
two categories.
The part specific
functionality is still primarily the domain of the departments
at (or body parts).
The responsibilities of
the commission are also along this
lines invested. Thus, the principal of
Imperial CIO as responsible for DWR
the generic ICT and
departmental CIOs are responsible for
specific functionality.
3.3 Resources
To achieve greater
openness are two resources
decision.
1. Open Standards
Open
With open standards
involves agreements on information -
Closed source
exchange. Characteristic of open
standards is that
Software Software
no barriers to the use of
the standards by
ICT users and ICT
providers. Open standards are
necessary to achieve
interoperability and
Open Standards
vendor independence. Open standards create
a plurality of
infrastructure solutions, both open source and
proprietary software,
allows without sacrificing the
torque ability.
For standards on "the
list of open standards to comply or explain" the
Standardization Forum, is
the comply or explain principle. "Apply" means that
organizations choose to
purchase an IT department or an IT product
using a relevant
application in the field to the list
mentioned open standard. "Explain" is that this
only exceptionally
reasons may be waived. The national government
is further detailed
Instruction in the Reich
d.d. October 2008.3
Open standards create the
foundation for DWR for more
supplier independence and
interoperability objectives. DWR committed
adhere to the "comply or
explain" principle. DWR will implement for
each asset
search for relevant open
standards. The monitoring this, the
architectural principles
and the development of DWR invested.
2. Open source software
Open source software is
software whose source code is freely available
which the licensee may
see the source code, use, improve
complete and distribute. On open source software
are no licensing
connected (or deployment
and management as with proprietary software).

Production Line OpenDWR,
Version: 0.9, Status: draft for consultation
Open source software for
DWR is an end in itself, but a serious option.
It contributes to the
supplier to the independence and equal playing field
the software market. Are equally appropriate
open source software will be preferred.
DWR has also paying
particular attention to the following characteristics of
open source software.
Security: The
accountability of the source code is open source
software have a positive
impact on security.
Re: DWR is committed
where possible to the state government in
-use open source software
reuse.
Cost: DWR aims to
contribute to cheaper
ICT for the national
government. This play and the price
of licenses
management costs a major
role. Because open source
software as a serious option
to take in tracks, there
will be more potential suppliers and
to take the competition. DWR expects that this
positive effect will
to the total ICT costs. DWR will be careful that
any
savings on license offset
by the cost of
implementation and
management.
3.4 Approach
The model chosen for the
realization of OpenDWR is a partly
based on seduction. DWR will provide helping
hand to the departments
this in a most natural
way possible.
These are some resources
used:
1. Generic facilities: The
activities in the previous chapter
described generically
refer to applicable functionality. The
generic parts of the
hands of departments to be created there
space to focus on their
core business
2. Natural moments: As
mentioned earlier migrations or
replacements scheduled at
times that already are at issue.
3. Best practices: DWR does
not reinvent the wheel and is actively
the battle of good
examples available to reuse.
Investing in knowledge,
knowledge sharing and reuse
Without knowledge about
open source software and open standards is impossible
to make good choices. It is about change
management knowledge, legal knowledge
and technical knowledge. DWR within the
organization will invest in further
development of knowledge.
Assurance for the Future
DWR The program runs
until the end of 2010. The management of DWR is
then transferred to the
management organization that currently
designed. Participants will also be
created RegieOrgaan for generic ICT
become. The management
organization will be made to the software and register

classification of packets
therein, to understand what facilities
should be made to fit the
current registry to obtain the
introduction of an open
workplace. For existing generic IT
facilities
DWR follows the normal
replacement cycle.
The monitoring and
developing the Production Line will OpenDWR to this
organizations are
invested.

Ok, I didn't phrase that very well. What I meant was, if there's enough enthousiasm, I'm sure a volunteer can be found for this :-)
I'll put my two cents in tomorrow, to sketch the outline.

Btw, I made a 'tiny' mistake, as an official response to the document should be given before the 1st of march, not before the end of march.
