[pd-discuss] Public Domain Day 2012

Thu Nov 10 23:57:11 UTC 2011

Hi Juan,

Public domain meetings sound like a great idea, please keep the Open
Knowledge Foundation in the loop (email me) about any events that come up.
It would be great to include them in an OKF blog post for Public Domain Day.

All the best,

Sam
