[epsi-coord] invitation by world bank

Agreed, you should go! If you can plan things a bit, the conference stuff can take care of itself for a few days (although easy for me to say, I don't have that much work in it...)

If Hanif Rahemtulla is at the meeting, say hi to him for me. We intended to talk, but we keep missing each other.

Best regards,
Katleen

Hi Ton

Although one can be sceptical about the open data activities of the WB in Kenya, I think it's a very good thing to strengthen our contact and participate in the meeting as ePSI representative.

Regards
Daniel
