[open-science] NASA Space Apps Challenge

Sat Oct 12 10:31:53 UTC 2013

Hey everyone,

Thanks for forwarding this, Laura. I led the Citizen Science team at the
2013 edition of the event in Paris (
http://fr.okfn.org/2013/04/18/partons-pour-mars/, French). OKF France was
partnering at that time with the local organizers.

I'm not sure yet how the 2014 edition will go. I'll let you know anyway :)
And it'll be great to see how it goes elsewhere.
