I hope I haven't missed anyone! If you are new to the list and I
haven't previously introduced you - please say 'hello'...

Sören - perhaps you can give a bit of background to existing
participants of the EU open data calls about the session you are
putting together? We decided that if we have issues with too many
people on a given call, we may branch into 'thematic' calls - e.g.
policy, catalogues, and so on.

All: there are two sessions this week that you may be interested in:

  * What: Third EU Open Data Call
  * When: 2010-02-09 at 1600 GMT, 5pm CET
  * Wiki: http://wiki.okfn.org/euopendata/3

  * What: Virtual workshop about open data catalogs and requirements
