[geo-discuss] Geodata in CKAN and collaboration (was Re: Responding to the consultation on opening Ordnance Survey's data)

[Jonathan Gray]

Just to follow this up:

  (i) If anyone is interested in joining a small informal group
focusing on CKAN's support for geodata and geospatially referenced
data - please drop me a line!
  (ii) Andrea, I think we discussed this before, but let me know if
you are interested in starting an Italian instance of CKAN (e.g.,
it.ckan.net). We are currently working on French, Canadian and German
instances.

All the best,

Jonathan
