Hi all,
For your reference I've posted the notes we drafted at the first meetup at:
http://okfn.org/wiki/LocalGroups/LondonGroup/1
Some things to take forward:
# Forums/Workshops
In addition to the Open Visualisation workshop, we're planning a
workshop on text analysis for the autumn. Other ideas for
forums/workshops from the first meetup (which I've added to main OK
London wiki page) included:
* open licensing
* cultural heritage
* digital methods
* social aspects of open knowledge
* economics of open knowledge
# Projects
* Peter Murray Rust suggested we make a short film, or a series of
mini films about the OKF and the open knowledge community.
* Use cases or ideas for re-using closed data. What could you do if x
was open?
* Toolkit for data providers. Video with different examples.
Demonstration of best practices in different domains.
Finally, we need to set a date for the next OK London Meetup - so we can
book again at the London Knowledge Lab. We can use Doodle again to
decide the specific dates, but first it would be good to get a rough
idea of how often people are keen to meet. After the last event there
was some suggestion of monthly or bi-monthly meetings. I presume that
many people will go away over the summer. Should we try and meet again
in June?
Warm regards,
Jonathan
