[wdmmg-discuss] R: R: R: Italy's regional public accounts

Tue Apr 26 13:57:01 UTC 2011

Hi Stefano,

Thank you very much for your interest in getting involved - it is
really exciting stuff. I am copying in Stefano Costa to this email,
who is community coordinator for OKF Italy, in order to make sure we
keep everyone in the loop.

@Steko perhaps we could coordinate a Skype chat with Stefano to see
how he could contribute?

- Stefano, does this suit and what is your availability? It would be
great to talk to you in more detail about the project!

Best wishes

Lucy
