Just a reminder that tonight's #OpenDataEDB meet-up will be at the Scottish Parliament, 6.00 pm.

You should enter the Scottish Parliament through the Public Entrance on Horse Wynd. As the meet-up is being held after business hours during recess, there may not be anyone at the entrance—in this case, please use the intercom and a member of the security team will open the door for you. Please note that you will have to pass through airport-style security screening. so allow extra time for this. After screening, please pick up a visitor pass from the Security Desk. Jaclyn Kaye or Claire Turnbull will then guide you to the meeting room. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jaclyn Kaye at jaclyn.kaye at scottish.parliament.uk. 

Very felicitously, the Scottish Parliament has today officially published their brand new Open Data page! See http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/opendata
