Sun Jul 13 18:21:53 UTC 2014

Dear Mor, Daniel and colleagues,

For anyone interested in these sessions, particularly the Open Data communities discussion, please try to join us at the Open Development fringe event on Friday to explore linking up the different efforts to link up open data sets for more powerful advocacy:

We hope to familiarize groups with each other's work in person, begin to document the scope and status of projects and identify areas of greatest potential mutual benefit.

Regards and see you in Berlin,

Jed

Many of you will be presenting in this session and I believe it will be a great opportunity to get informed and meet new people with similar problems and amazing solutions. Also, Daniel really did a great job organizing it and you don't want to miss him there!

This subject has also been raised in Tcamp and I think that all of you can contribute to it from your own experience. I'm pleased that this is a joint session to all of the big international networks of OKF, Sunlight Foundation, MySociety and the NDI and looking forward to it. You can read more about it at the OKFest blog.
