[open-data-day] Open Data Day - Mountain View, CA [Open Science/Data Education Course Sprint]

[David Eaves]

Billy - this is awesome. We've also wanted open data day to appeal to people who are developers. I love this approach.

Have got some blogs on Open Data Day I'm teeing up so would like to mention this for sure!

The module plan is being developed, and I'll be posting the organizing documents for any interested parties to check out, but it would great to have local and remote participants help flesh out the course during a "course sprint" on Fri Feb 22nd or Sat Feb 23rd.  The hope is that course will be ready to roll for Open Education Week in March, though the primary build-out will take place on Open Data Day.

If you're in the Bay Area, I'm also entertaining the idea of hosting in-person attendees here at the Creative Commons HQ in Mountain View.
