Dear Francis,

Would you be up for speaking about ScaperWiki at this year's Open Knowledge Conference? (OKCon) http://okcon.org/

Would be great if you could participate and give a session at OKCon 2011!

## Background

OKCon 2011 takes place on the 30th June and 1st of July in Berlin. This is the 6th Annual Open Knowledge Conference (OKCon) and the first time we've been to Berlin. OKCon is a wide-ranging event that brings together individuals and organizations from academia and across the open knowledge spectrum for two days of presentations, workshops and exchange of ideas. It combines a fun, informal atmosphere with a diverse audience -- everyone from data geeks to policy-makers.

For more Info see, Call for participation: http://okcon.org/2011/cfp/
