Most. Open Source. Candidate. Ever.
Ok, blog ate my longer post on the subject, which is probably for the best. Anyway, check out Chacon for Congress (D-CA11). This dude is a software developer running for the seat currently held by US Rep. Richard Pombo (R-CA11).
Dean has been called the “open source candidate/campaign” by pretty much everybody (including me) but Chacon takes it to a whole new level. What’s even better is that he is using his campaign to test and extend his software platform, Groundworks, which is - of course - available for everyone else to use.
