This is a space to collaboratively work on a session proposal for MozFest. The basic idea is to bring together various organisations working in the open space to discuss ideas and possibilities for collaboration. There's so much that can be done, but how shall we do it? What do we want to achieve? Please either edit the below directly or comment on the talk page. But be quick! The closing date for applications is 31 August.
MozFest takes place at Ravensbourne, London from 25-27 October. Details, and proposal form, here.

What will your session allow people to make, learn or do?
The idea of the session is to bring together people and organisations that work in the space of open - whether open maps, open data, open source, open knowledge and so on - to explore ways that we can share our information with each other, and how we can support each other's communities. So far the communities approached for this include Wikimedia, Open Street Map, Open Knowledge Foundation, Mozilla and Open Data Initiative. All groups working in this area are welcome to participate and encouraged to do so! (to be expanded)
