Subject: [a2geeks] Open Data Day - interest?
To: a2g...@googlegroups.com, ubuntu...@lists.ubuntu.com


Hi all,

There was a recent thread on my alma mater's mailing list about Open Data
Day. Specifically how it is soon (this Saturday) and there isn't a group
doing anything in A2 (to the best of our knowledge).

http://www.opendataday.org/

If anyone is interested in participating in Open Data Day in A2, let me
know, I can find us a place to hack for the day. (Or, if you have a place
that you think would be great, send me a note as well.)

Below is the email from si.al...@umich.edu

Short notice, yes, but that doesn't mean we can't do anything here.

Also, I heard there was this dump of information last night that, while
not strictly speaking "open data," would be interesting to do some
analysis on. And you don't have to just look at attempted assassinations;
there are some interesting bits talking about Intellectual Property as
well: http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/5483/125/

If there is sufficient interest (ie: more than just Andrew and I) I will
find us a place to meet and hack on Saturday. While I'm not really a
developer I'm pretty darn good at finding developers places to do there
thing for an afternoon.

Please respond (either publicly or just to me) if you are interested in
attending. No commitment is really necessary, I just want an idea if I'll
be alone or not.

Greg

Short notice, sure, but might be worth attention even if you can't
participate directly.

I would be interested - live in South Lyon, so AA is close to me.  Somewhere with Coffee???

Thanks,
