Heres some quick notes of the first inter-Nordic open data/knowledge interesteds Hangout session: ( Ps. it looks like the Norwegian Data Journalism + School of Data day was moved to May. Final dates and details have yet to be decided ). So, there was a bunch of us, form across the Nordic region, who congregated on a Hangout session just now. We managed to include : - Iceland ( thanks Tryggvi ) - Norway ( thanks Heather) - OKFN-local/Denmark ( thanks Christian) - Niels Erik from OKFN Denmark also tried joining, but was defeated by the local firewall :( Youll find some notes I made of this meeting linked further below. In any event, some of the main things that came out of the call includes: - Theres good enthusiasm and inspiration to work on Nordic open cooperation. We agree that well keep these calls going periodically - at least monthly. So far the plan is to do a call on the first Wednesday of every month. So... --> The next call is on the 2nd of April 10:00. ( Well continue working on finding a good video conferencing solution - one thats perhaps more free and that isnt hindered by firewalls..) - Theres good conviction to keep working across the Nordic counties - projects like School of Data and collaborating on opening similar datasets are some of the more immediate things that people thought we could work on. ( Of course, the agenda for what to cooperate on is far from set - so feel free to contribute ).
