[ckan-discuss] CKAN participation in DCAT meeting, tomorrow (2010-04-22) at 1600 GMT?

Wed Apr 21 17:40:23 BST 2010

Could be useful if someone from CKAN could participate in this call --
to see what the latest is and to tell others about our plans in this
area?

Rufus, David, John, Friedrich: any of you available?

All the best,

Jonathan
