Hi, Yup, i'd highly recommend going if your local to it :)
I went to the OpenGov WestBC #ogwbc conference yesterday at uVic and it was great to see how much interest there is in Opening up the data (of all types). My hopes is that the rest of the country will be able to follow the leadership of Surrey, BC who made their data public domain. Whats (seriously) funny, is that all that is needed is a decision by the premier of the province to make it a law, .... like Sanfransisco did. .... maybe.. Anyway, the way that this can happen is that more people need to simply 'ask for it'. :-) (email your city and ask why they dont copy from other cities/regions/provinces/countries) cheers, Sam ps. the #ogwbc will be found on twitter :) _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
