Great to hear Saul. I think the best thing is to have an irc meeting asap.

Jordan, Saul, (anyone else): could we do an evening some time soon?

In the mean time:  Jordan can you ping the talis guys about the domain
name plus can you get a dump of the opendatacommons wordpress db so I
can load it up on the okfn machines.

Also any ideas about how we organize the relationship between the Open
Definition site and Open Data Commons. My initial suggestion was to
merge them so that all the content ran on the same site (perhaps with
ODC at /odc/) but I am having second thoughts. What do others think?

We should definitely involve OD Advisory Council in this. Jordan, as
current OD council chair would you be happy to send an email? You
could probably just send your original email (perhaps with small
update to reflect these discussions).

Regards,
