Your question doesn't make sense. You want to develop a Government ID Numbering System for something, and you want to use Open Source for something too? – Chris S♦ Sep 9 '10 at 12:38
yes we are doing for one of the country and we want to use only open source products to develop – neolix Sep 9 '10 at 12:40
that still dosent make any sense. I assume you mean "we are looking to develop a system similar to the social security number system in the USA, but using open source products - does anyone have any suggesiotns on this?" -- but that is way too vauge to be answered anyhow ! – Sirex Sep 9 '10 at 12:44
yes i know my english suck – neolix Sep 9 '10 at 12:48
translate.google.com Numbering and Identification systems are easy; they simply take a degree of forethought. A MySQL DB could hold that info easily. PHP or a custom C++ program could present it via Apache; or you could build an OSS program to interface with the DB. None of this is specific to ID Systems. – Chris S♦ Sep 9 '10 at 12:49

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

Assuming you're looking for advice on needed open source products that might come in handy; take a look at
