[open-data-day] Open Data Day 2014

[Eric Mill]

Yeah, we did this for DC's, using dc.opendataday.org - one of David's
friends kindly pointed the CNAME record at a static IP I had reserved with
Amazon EC2.

It was a much nicer URL (than a crazy Hackpad URL) to send out
electronically, print out on materials, and generally get in people's
heads. For a while, we ran our own Etherpad there, then when that choked we
had it redirect to a Hackpad.
