Hi All, We are now on the home run for the Global Open Data Index 2014 <http://global.census.okfn.org/>.
*Final Submissions* Submissions close next week (deadline* October 30*) so please help us make sure your country is represented in the Global Open Data Index 2014. After this date, it won't be possible to make further submissions and our reviewing process will begin ahead of the final publication of the Index. We’ve extended the country-list year so we need your help more than ever in the final week! If your country already has data for 2013, it's incredibly easy to revise and update the data for 2014. Here are a few countries we need particular help with (please note that we welcome contributions on any country but these are some where assistance is especially valued due to sparse coverage at the moment): *Europe* – Armenia, Croatia, Hungary, Ukraine, Slovenia, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Portugal, Poland *Americas* – Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Brazil, USA *Asia/Pacific* – South Korea, Taiwan, India, Mongolia, New Zealand, Australia *Africa* – Sierra Leone, Mali, Malawi, Mozambique Thank you so much to all of the people who have already made their submissions for 2014. *Reviewing* All submissions need to be reviewed to ensure good accuracy and quality. *If you are interested in reviewing either for your country or region, please sign up here <https://docs.google.com/a/okfn.org/forms/d/1WUwIiGRPpV3dw7MsUWVisaBZbKRSOQ2IXmgRt_cBW9E/viewform>.* *Submission Close-out Hangout* I’ll be chatting to Mor Rubinstein about the Index on 30 October at 2pm BST (London) / 9am EDT / 3pm Europe as part of the *final submission closing day*.
