>>> As you are all aware, we’ve been having a big push on the Open Data Census over the last couple of weeks, with the help of our wonderful community; thank               you all! And now we're going to use it to put a big international focus on open data, as G8 representatives are gathering in Northern Ireland this week.

To have a truly international impact, we would really appreciate your assistance on contacting newspapers and media outlets in your countries or regions to let them know the results of the census.

>>> It would be wonderful if you could gather your press contacts, and get your translation skills ready and primed to go; we can have an early copy of the press release ready for you by Wednesday June 12, so that (if you have capacity and wish to) you can translate it ready for international release, on Thursday June 13, or simply send it out to media in your country on Thursday.  
>>> 
>>> Our aim is to create as much of an international buzz around this as possible, and it would be great to really mobilize our international community around it, and see what we can achieve.

>>> **If you would like to receive an early copy of the press release for translation, email me today. Otherwise, you will receive it on Thursday**
