Dear Mika,

I would like to join the session on Wednesday and learn about the plans made so far.

OpenEconomics and OpenSpending would have a planning session later on Wednesday and hopefully we can integrate some of our ideas (http://econ.okfnpad.org/WGmeeting)

If anybody is interested in cooperating on the Economics of Cities - opportunities for local communities and people living in urban areas, we would also connect with the Living Labs Global (http://www.livinglabs-global.com/), who have an extensive and growing network of contacts to local governments and technical solution providers. I recently attended the Rio Summit with Rufus and spoke with them about having possibly events which engage civil society more and give a chance to work with open city data - e.g. Code for Cities. Urban data i.e. transport and urban mobility data is also very interesting.

We are also interesting in working on standards - both in reporting results in social science research and also standards for releasing fiscal data.

Look forward to hearing more from all of you! If there an Etherpad or online collaborative document?

Hi all, there was a mistake in the invite below: the next Skype session will be on Wednesday (16th May), not Tuesday. It was correct in the Doodle, but I somehow mixed it while writing the mail. Sorry!

Best, Mika

Adding to Mika's email below, there's three actions from the OKFest OpenDev planning session that we'd encourage you to comment on, either directly at http://opengovernmentdata.okfnpad.org/open-development-okfest2012
or by joining the next Skype session on either Fri 11th May 8:30 GMT or Tue 16th May 9 GMT depending on your votes: http://www.doodle.com/rdkraep9uwdm5cfc


1.       Topics within the stream - at the moment there are 3 identified topics and 2 side events. Is everyone ok with this?

a.       Open development and aid flow exploring developments in the International Aid Transparency Initiative, and tracking aid to developing countries.

b.      Open = accessible? What are the practical issues for citizens in developing countries accessing open information?

c.       Technologies for open development. What role do ICTs and open technologies such as FLOSS or open hardware play in open development?

d.      Plus two side events: 1 event for Finnish NGOs to come and learn more, and 2. A workshop/hackday or similar to take one specific sector (e.g. water, health) and practically work out how open data can make a difference.
The OKFest organisers will use these topics in the second call for proposals/papers, so it's important to get them right. Please note that our friends from the Open Economics e-list may also be joining us, so they may have additional topics.


2.       We need to decide a central theme (eg. Open Development - where next?) and book in some key note speakers.



3.       A proposal was made to create a central bursary in order to support delegates from Asia, Africa and the Americas. We need to know who's interested in supporting this proposal with funding, or if anyone has good ideas about trusts/foundations to approach.

BTW, I'm conscious that not everyone in the OpenDev e-list will be interested in preparations for the conference.  We'll  tag emails OKFest, you'll know you can hit delete ;O) I do think it's important to keep the discussion here though so that everyone can see what's going on.

Cheers,

Sarah
