Right, one Open Knowledge Foundation is http://opendefinition.org -
specifically - http://www.opendefinition.org/okd/
This is essentially a re-write of the Open Source Initiative open source 
definition, with general content, data, resources in mind.

As for what Open Knowledge "is" rather than what its properties are, 
that's very broad - one tagline of Rufus Pollocks is
"sonnets to statistics, genes to geodata".

A note, that apart from myself the rest of the Edinburgh organising 
group are not hardcore OKF types and I certainly don't speak for everyone!

Looking forward to meeting you in a few weeks,

jo
