[euopendata] [bigclean] Idea: screen scraping sprint -> 19.3.2011

[Irene Celino]

Hi Johathan,

| running similar '5 people + pizza' operations in other locations. ;-)

| (All: if you're potentially interested - please say now!)

We are definitely interested in doing something similar in Milano.
The March date is too close, but we can think about organizing this in the next months. 

Cheers,
Irene
