Hello to all ...

As many know, the Canadian Open Data Summit is being held in Edmonton this June. I am sure it will be good but I have been thinking it is a very traditional approach to open data which should be, well, more open and accessible. :)

As such I would like to give a heads up that I and a few others are trying to organize an Unsummit (like unconference) on the Saturday prior to the actual Summit. It will borrow concepts from Open Space (Technology) and as such there are no attendees but rather participants, no preset agenda, no keynote speaker flitting and out, and hopefully no few doing the speaking to many.

I hope we can get this (the first ever Canadian Open Data Unsummit) off the ground soon and hope some readers of this message will be able to participate. I will update the group as soon as I can.

... gerry
