In case anyone is interested, there is a Hackday on the topic of
rulebending and disclosing conflicts of interest and lobby groups in the
EU. The event will take place around a month from now, November 24-25 in
London.

http://www.pbs.org/idealab/2012/10/open-interests-europe-hackathon-to-track-flow-of-money-in-eu292.html

Challenges include a Lobbying Transparency Challenge to uncover who is
swaying the flows of money in the EU and a Fish Subsidies challenge, to see
who is bending the rules to exploit the seas.

Participation is free, and there are still places for coders. Sign up form
here: http://openinterests.eventbrite.com/

All the best,

Lucy
