[okfn-discuss] International Open Data Hackathon - this Saturday 4th December

Thu Dec 2 16:15:33 UTC 2010

According to http://www.opendataday.org/wiki/City_Events#Washington.2C_DCthe
location is still TBD however someone mentioned the
FortiusOne/GeoCommons office in Courthouse, Arlington could be used. Would
it be okay to list DHDC as an available location? Probably all the other
open data hacker attendees would love to join any event where people are
interested in working on these topics. Any idea if DHDC people are
interested in the related OKFN CKAN packaging party?
Exciting how many groups and events are getting involved in these topics!
