Dukket opp noe på den svenske listen som antakeligvis er interessant for 
noen i Norge og.

Hey good open folks,


*Short version : *

A Nordic open geo & map data meetup/mini-conference is possible in 
parallel with Hack4no, the open cultural data hackathon, at the end of 
October, in Norway.
(More details below, but a question first )

But,*we need to know how many people would be interested i coming,* and 
how many might be interested in contributing to make the event happen ( 
more on the latter below too ).
There'll be tracks on different aspects of open geo/map data, as well as 
workshops.

*PLEASE fill in the doodle poll below,* mentioning whether you might be 
interested in coming, as well as whether you might consider coming and 
paying a small fee to cover some basic costs.

PLEASE answer as soon as possible - the poll closes on Sunday.











*Longer version : *

Some open people have voiced interest in having an open map data event, 
and we've some preliminary interest from people who'd like to run 
workshops and whatnot.

Kartverket, the mapping authority of Norway, the main organiser of 
Hack4No, has said they could be interested in hosting a open map&geo 
data event in parallel with Hack4No.

This is really nice of Kartverket, but to make it happen, we need to 
know how many people could be interested in coming, and whether they'd 
consider paying some small fee to cover some basic costs.



*Longer version - part Two*

If enough people are interested in attending, the next steps would be to 
organise some tracks for the event. There's an academic/education, 
business, civil society, etc… side to open map & geo data. it'd be great 
to have an open call, get suggestions for content, and organise these 
different tracks.

( We've already had some offers from the kind folks at Wikipedia, as 
well as some others like Søren Johanssen, to run workshops on new 
wikipedia mapping features, as well as open source mapping tools. ( Of 
course, depending on how things go, it might or might not be possible to 
run the workshops, but at least the will is there )).

I hope there's sufficient interest, and that we can proceed with 
organising the event!


All the best,

miksa
