History
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
In 2005, an internal prototype of OpenSlides was developed specifically
|
|
for use on general meetings of the federal association of `protestant
|
|
student community (Bundes-ESG) <http://www.bundes-esg.de>`_ in Germany
|
|
by Emanuel Schütze in PHP. In late 2010 Oskar Hahn and Emanuel Schütze
|
|
began with a new development in Python/Django and build up a Free Software
|
|
project, called "OpenSlides". OpenSlides was published under the GNU GPL
|
|
in August 2011. Version 1.0 is released on September 12th 2011.
|
|
The first productive use of OpenSlides happened at the general meeting of
|
|
the ESG in Hanover/Germany in mid-september 2011.
