The site is used for consultations and tgathering feedback on the Ministry&#8217;s projects and policies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is more than a standalone consultation platform based on Drupal&#8221;, a Ministry spokesperson explains. The service is made of two parts: firstly, a module for the Drupal-based site to create consultations and share documents and secondly the code that links this module to the document management system. &#8220;We&#8217;re using <a href=\"http:\/\/framework.zend.com\/\">Zend Framework<\/a> to create this second part. The solution allows us to embed the document and work-flow management system, including legislative and technical rules for creating the documents.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The applications are currently being readied for a production environment. The spokesperson remarked that the developers are still fixing a few bugs, but live data is already being used.<\/p>\n<p>The ministry expects this phase to be completed in about a month, after which the code will be published on a software development site, although the Ministry still has to decide which code repository to use.<\/p>\n<p>Poland&#8217;s Foundation on Open and Free Software (FWIOO) says that the Ministry&#8217;s site &#8220;has the potential to become the default on-line consultation platform of the Polish government.&#8221; FWIOO was also involved in drafting the software&#8217;s specifications. &#8220;One year ago we created a similar tool for the Ministry of Administration and Digitization. That was also a combination of Drupal and free software extensions&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poland&#8217;s Ministry of Economy will release the source code that it wrote for linking its back office to a site built with the Drupal open source content management system (CMS), reports the EU&#8217;s public sector open source news site Joinup.
