[open-data-day] looking towards ODHD14

[David Eaves]

Hi Ton,

I agree that it is good to set the date now. The more advanced planning people have, the better. I'm blown away that you want to do events in 38 cities in the netherlands alone! 

I also agree that February is WAY better than December. The December date started to get close to the holidays in the Northern Hemisphere and was in the heart of summer in the south. Pretty much everyone I've talked to said they preferred February… combine that with peoples comments on the list and I think there is really no debate about the switch.

I also think doing anything around the weekend of Valentine's is going to make everyone unpopular with their significant others so the 22nd strikes me as the best date by far.

Let's lock that date down… (last Saturday of Feb in 2014 is the 22nd)
