[open-government] Scientific Access to Data and Information

[Daniel Dietrich]

Very *very* interesting, indeed! I learned about CODATA years ago but
did almost forget about it. Great to see open data on the agenda of
next years conference. Thanks to Paul and Tracey for sharing this
information.

Best
Daniel

Info about the preliminary program will be available on the www.codata.org website "soon". There will be a call for papers and for organizing sessions, probably sometime in late winter, with a due date of late April, if past practice is prologue.
