[OSM-talk-ie] opensourceireland.org

2010-04-19 Thread Kenneth O'Brien
Hi,

Some of you may have seen us give a presentation at ossbarcamp last 
weekend.
We're in the process of building a website which will
centralise the rather fragmented opensource community in Ireland.
Basically it'll be a one stop site for all opensource events in
ireland along with bios of the groups involved and their members if
they like.

Of course, this is meant to be a site built by the community for the
community so your input is greatly appreciated if we're to pull this
off.

Currently we're taking comments on our site as well as on freenode irc
in #opensourceireland. Feel free to idle in our channel.

Best Regards,

Ken

[OSM-talk-ie] IIA - Digitise The Nation, 17-21 May. Promotion Opp?

2010-04-19 Thread Richard Cantwell
Hi everybody,

The Irish Internet Association (IIA) are running a week long series of 
promotions and events aimed at the general public with the aim of raising the 
profile of the Irish Internet industry (their members, effectively)  It's 
running in May, from Monday 17th to Friday 21st, all across the country.

I think participating in the week would be a good way of getting the OSM 
message out there and possibly recruiting more volunteers.

I have emailed the IIA about potentially running one or more mapping parties as 
part of the week and they were very positive indeed.

I would be interested in your thoughts. I am intending to revert to the IIA 
this week.

Regards,

Richard Cantwell
