[open-science] [Open-access] Open Data Day 2014 - let's synchronise open science data events on 22 Feb!

[Michelle Brook]

Hey all,

I know I'd be keen to push on with an idea previously floated about
exploring scholarly publishers (and learned societies) and their incomes.
(More information and th ebeginnings of a proposed data expedition found:
http://pad.okfn.org/p/scholarly-publishers-data-expedition).

The Open Knowledge Foundation is going to be doing more work next year
around open access - and it would be great to get some of this data
together to display visually.

Would anyone else be interested in this?

MIchelle
