Ohio's premier library technology conference "tech connections 5 : secure
and defend...the WILD side of technology!", June 7-8, 2004 at the Fawcett

E-POLICY ESSENTIALS: A PRACTICAL HOW-TO FOR DEVELOPING WHAT WORKS...AND
AVOIDING WHAT DOESN'T

Facilitator: Christian Selch, Administrator for Statewide IT Policy, Office
of Information Technology, State of Ohio

--Do you know which core public policies every public entity should have in
place concerning technology? And what should be the essential internal
technology policies of any organization? This session will provide you with
easy-to-understand tips, tools and techniques for assessing where you are,
where you need to be, and how to get there in putting together an effective
e-policy environment. Having served as head of statewide IT policy for both
Ohio's judicial and executive branches, Christian will demystify e-policy
development and recommend a proven, straightforward, step-by-step approach
any public organization can use to address today's compelling issues
surrounding privacy, security, business continuity and others. He'll also
provide you with practical advice on avoiding common problems.
--Christian Selch serves as Ohio's administrator for statewide IT policy. He
heads statewide IT policy efforts for Ohio's executive branch of government,
having previously served as the head of statewide IT policy for Ohio's
judicial branch with the Supreme Court of Ohio. A career devoted to
government technology, Mr. Selch has held positions with both the private
and public sectors serving state and local government. Early in his career
he developed two best-selling Ohio court management applications and later
led over 40 government automation initiatives. Mr. Selch served on national
IT policy initiatives concerning standards, privacy, and procurement,
authored national functional standards for court financial systems, and led
over 35 judicial and executive branch statewide IT policy initiatives. He
has presented at numerous state and national conferences, testified before
numerous government boards, commissions and governing bodies, and has
lectured many times as guest faculty on government IT issues. He is past
chair of both the National State Judiciary CIO Forum and the National
Judiciary IT Forum.


LEVERAGING THE LAMP SOFTWARE MODEL: LINUX APACHE MySQL AND PHP AS AN
APPLICATION PLATFORM

Facilitator: Tom Hanlon, Functional Media

--LAMP refers to a set of tools that allow for rapid deployment and
development of software applications. If you use LAMP you are in good
company. Linux is the most common implementation of UNIX as such it provides
standards compliant robust operating system with a legacy for security and
stability. Apache is the most popular web server on the internet. MySQL is a
fast flexible Relational Database. PHP is the most popular scripting
language for developing dynamic web based applications. By combining these
tools you can rapidly develop applications. Each of these tools are the
"best in there class" and a wealth of information is available for the
beginner. This session will be a one hour introduction to these tools. Easy
to get started yet capable of delivering enterprise scale applications the
LAMP software model just might be the way to go for your next application.
--Tom Hanlon is the owner and CEO of Functional Media, a web development
firm located in Athens Ohio. A long term web developer and Linux user he has
years of experience in PHP, Python, Apache, and MySQL. In addition to
running Functional Media Tom also works part-time as an instructor for
Learning Tree International where he teaches the apache class and the MySQL
