[okfn-za] Open Data Initiatives in southern Africa?

[Lucy Chambers]

Hi Adi,

Great to hear from you. Given the nature of the programme, I would also
suggest cross-posting your question on our development mailing list:
http://lists.okfn.org/mailman/listinfo/open-development

That way, you should benefit from the international experience of the
community also!

I will also forward your question on to a couple of people I know, maybe
they will also be able to help )

All the best,

Lucy
