Nice one Harm! :) I agree that we should expand the scope and 'cross the
streams' of FIIs...

What I'll try to do is recruit a few people to do irregular updates
from their FII zone. I guess just a few words, notes from an event -
just tidbits of information - but *regular* would be good.

We can sort out the categories more when we know what is coming in from
the various contributors.

Perhaps we should also make a blogroll since so many orgs associated
with WSFII have feeds... for example:

Events: http://blog.okfn.org/taxonomy/events/feed/
Free Culture: http://blog.okfn.org/taxonomy/free-culture/feed/
Open Geodata: http://blog.okfn.org/taxonomy/open-geodata/feed/
Open Knowledge: http://blog.okfn.org/taxonomy/open-knowledge/feed/

Still - perhaps we could think about building a planet-style WSFII
aggregator at some point. For the moment, focusing on events seems like
a good idea.

I'm writing my first post now!

Cheers,

Saul
