[@OKau] Who is leading or participating in OKAU-related projects?

Tue Apr 7 19:35:23 UTC 2015

Hi again:

I’ve now got a submission process for submitting items for the Open Knowledge Labs newsletter (but I’ve already noted the previous suggestions, no need to do it again for those):

https://gist.github.com/pwalsh/09a2646bd00cd94e7f51 <https://gist.github.com/pwalsh/09a2646bd00cd94e7f51>

Inspired by Open Australia, we’re using GitHub issues and pull requests to compile the newsletter :).

In addition to that, I’ll try again on the first part of my initial mail in this thread:

>>> 1. If there is any such list of projects and their leads/maintainers, could it be shared so that we could use it in OK Labs to connect with people?

Thanks,

Paul

Another reason is that we are doing some cool stuff, and want to ensure that it gets passed around to the wider community (tooling, standards, etc.).
