On tuesday the DataPortability Project will host it’s plenary meeting for Q1 2009.
Here is our official announcement:
All members of the plenary are invited to this meeting, where the
Steering Group can explain how we are tracking against the goals and
question Steering members on the DataPortability Project’s future
direction and the relevance of work being performed. It also is an
opportunity for the community to make binding decisions on behalf of
the Project, despite being removed from the day to day operation of
it.As with all DataPortability Project meetings, this is open to anyone
regards of Project status to participate. The DataPortability Project
is keeping to being a community driven organization, and although we
don’t charge membership fees, we require people to „opt into“
membership so we simply have a measurable way of determining people
that wish to identify themselves as part of the Plenary.
