[okfn-coord] Fwd: [Communia-members] OPEN MODELS IN KNOWLEDGE INTENSIVE SECTORS, EURAM 2009

Sat Dec 13 21:45:30 UTC 2008

How about something related to open data?

If we put something together (no matter the topic), I can block out  
some time to do a joint paper and handle any of the legal issues  
(assuming there are some).
