Save the date, Monday, 18 Oct - the 2010 elections and their impact on Gov 2.0 / OpenGov in NY

[noel hidalgo]

Dear Friends,

The Open New York community is planning on having a pre-election meetup to discuss the impact of the 2010 elections and the future of open data and Government 2.0 in New York. This event will be nonpartisan and is OUR opportunity to discuss OUR issues with campaign representatives and (invited) elected officials.

For now, this is a place holder to add to your calendar....
