[ogdcamp] Welcome to Katalin Gallyas, City of Amsterdam!

Thu Jul 7 14:19:47 UTC 2011

Hi All, 

Happy to coordinate this. 

I can get Barcelona, Helsinki and Budapest easily on board, I think . 

When is the first organizers' skype call scheduled?

And yes, I have a quite interesting story from Amsterdam about do's and dont's in public sector about tricks how to get data released and how to find the political Open Data Evangelist in the public sector. 
It would be nice to invite Peter Corbett too, from iStrategy (Washingtpn DC ) he was the initiator of data.gov. You might know him very well. We can discuss this option. 
Talk to you soon!

Best regards,

Katalin Gallyas

Onderwerp: Welcome to Katalin Gallyas, City of Amsterdam!

Hi all,

I'm very pleased to welcome Katalin Gallyas from the City of Amsterdam
to the 'ogdcamp' organisers list. The City of Amsterdam are now a
partner for the Open Government Data Camp 2011! She is going to be
checking to see if the city will help to cover travel expenses for her
and her colleagues to participate.

Katalin: we're really keen to have a special session on "Open Data
Cities" - and perhaps even a separate satellite event or hands on
workshop (e.g. "how to open up city data")! Would you be willing to
help to coordinate this? I've already contacted Berlin and London.
I'll ping the Paris open data team now!

All the best,

Jonathan
