[open-development] [OKFN-Local-Coord] Interesting talks/events from the Global South during OKFestival?

Mon Jul 14 21:03:58 UTC 2014

HI All,

Great initiatives! I created a timemapper
<http://timemapper.okfnlabs.org/anon/vf85hj-open-development-at-okfestival-#1>
with open development events and sessions, and a blog post here
<http://2014.okfestival.org/open-development-a-okfestival/> - looking at
these, I definitely missed things! I'll add!

Tuesday night, after the fair, we have been encouraging people to go to Prater
Graten <http://www.pratergarten.de/d/> for drinks - close to the venue and
holds up to 600 people, weather permitting of course.

Looking forward to seeing you all!

All the best,
Katelyn
