Hey Everyone,

Just a very quick reminder about tonight's event (in case you missed it). Morgan Stanley will be talking about open source and enterprise software (and how companies like Morgan Stanley contribute to the open source community), after which they will be buying pizza for everyone, and offering to take us all to the pub.

Hope to see many of you there tonight! =)

Morgan Stanley: Open source and the enterprise

http://ox.compsoc.net/events/2013/michaelmas/morgan_stanley_open_source_and_the_enterprise/

Date: Wednesday Week 2 - 23 October 2013 Time: 06:30 PM Facebook Event https://facebook.com/events/166643480198101/Place: Lecture Theatre A - Dept. of Computer Science http://ox.compsoc.net/events/venue/compsci_lta/Tags: Corporate http://ox.compsoc.net/events/tags/corporate/ Talk http://ox.compsoc.net/events/tags/talk/

/Note: This event will include pizza and Morgan Stanley will be taking everyone for drinks afterwards./

This session looks at what it means to be "Enterprise" software: how open-source can help in large organisations, and vice versa: where are the benefits in organisations contributing to open-source, using Morgan Stanley's contributions to open-source as examples. Specific ideas are presented around how to make software more enterprise friendly, and how to build an open-source community.
