Wow! There's a lot going on in Washington DC in the next few months. ;-)

I will be in New York to give a paper in mid March - but am not sure

It would be great if you were able to mention the Open Knowledge
Definition (OKD) in relation to discussions of openness and open
government data:

Warm regards,

Jonathan
