Ever wondered about how things like "Open Access" and "Open Source" could be relevant to you. If so come along to the "Cambridge Open Knowledge Meetup" to hear updates about recent developments and discuss the problems and potential of open approaches to knowledge creation. The focus at these events is on open discussion though we do start out with some (brief) presentations. If you'd like to give a talk on something you've been working on (or thinking about) please let us know. _______________________________________________ okfn-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.okfn.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/okfn-discuss
