> the work of organisations in the open knowledge space. This is a
> signal that we are looking to ground and expand the OKFN's activities
> into the future, to grow as a collaborative community, serviced by an
> agile, lightweight core. The Board's vision for the organisation is
> one that supports and nutures autonomous projects that are loosely
> joined by their endorsement and promotion of open knowledge, as set
> out in the open knowledge definition. We look forward to presenting
> the OKFN community with our plans to achieve this vision in the coming
> year.

> regular donations. If you'd like to support us in this effort please
