[@OKau] We need to talk...

[Steven De Costa]

Sorry about that.

I'm trying to get the video up now... give me a little longer and then
everyone can get the same intro as those at IODC ;)

The plan is:

   1. Get the video up
   2. Email this list to share the idea
   3. Discuss on this list to see if folks likle it, have questions, would
   be happy to help curate, etc
   4. Do a general blog post on au.oklfn.org about it
   5. Promote the idea throughout the OK network globally and receive more
   input.
   6. Lastly to then curate, edit and publish (probably as a resource
   within the open data handbook)


Cheers,
Steven
