The Open Knowledge Conference (OKCon) is back for its fourth installment
bringing together individuals and groups from across the open knowledge
spectrum for a day of talks, discussions and workshops.

This year the event will feature dedicated sessions on 'open knowledge
and development' and 'open data and the semantic web'. In addition we
are reserving a substantial part of the event for the 'Open Space'-
sessions, workshops and discussions proposed either via the call for
proposals or on the day.

Interested in giving a paper? Have a project to talk about? Want to run
a workshop or session? Please see the call for proposals:

  <http://www.okfn.org/okcon/cfp/>

Want to get involved in putting the event together or otherwise helping
out? Contact us at info [at] okfn [dot] org or add your name to the
OKCon wiki page:

Last but not least: we encourage early registration as space is limited:
