[okfn-coord] Communia - Turkey - Ronan Deazley

Wed Mar 10 17:02:39 UTC 2010

I'm not sure who is going to Turkey -- I don't know if just as with Luxembourg we have some extra room for people involved with OKF to also go.  I'd like to put forward Ronan Deazley, who does a whole lot of interesting copyright work -- particularly around cultural heritage -- and is someone that I think would be good to get engaged from our end in the remaining Communia events as I think he could add a lot to the conversation.

Also it would be good to get him more involved with OKF as well.

Is there a process around this for seeing if we can approve him to go?

Thanks
