Open source bid writing

David Wilcox, Simon Berry and a couple of other people I know are running an open source bid for government money:


"We are developing an "open source bid" to the UK Cabinet Office for a £1.2 million nonprofit innovation exchange - and offering a place for your ideas. More on the exchange, our first model, how to join in, and who is involved. If you like the approach (or not) please leave a comment. No need to register."

More info at Open Innovation Exchange

Not sure whether I can see any specific proposals emerging from the site in the next two weeks - but it's certainly a great way of puffing a bid before it hits the desk of the people who will decide who gets the cash.

I certainly intend posting ideas.

Thanks for the mention Mark. We are serious about developing the proposal in the 'open'. The first workpackage description went up today!
All contributions/insights etc welcome.
