Last weekend the weekly Wellington Friends in Testing group changed location to the National Library to join in the Digital NZ Hacktest.
Here’s the blurb explaining who DigitalNZ are:
DigitalNZ is a collaborative initiative led by the National Library of New Zealand. We work
with a wide range of contributing institutions and organisations. Without these content providers and their content, DigitalNZ would not be possible.
We did the usual test of the latest build of Sugar, and some general playtime testing contributed applications. Some of us tried out the Digital NZ open data API, and thought creating a OLPC app that queries this API would be great, especially if it caches the data locally somehow, or turns into a collaborative activity.
There was coffee, pizza, lollies and beer. Thanks Digital NZ!
