  3. Kate reckons that she has the data, she has the facilities, she has the techies, let's get together and see what we can build at a Hackday.

    She is asking the question that many of us are: what is the point of a hackday? Why aren't we creating any applications that are getting mainstreamed at these events. Or at least kickstarting them.
  4. Andy suggests having a pre-discussion on the Making a Difference With Data site. He is curating the transport section on there.

    #brewcamp I've offered the http://www.madwdata.org.uk/ roads & transport forum as venue for pre-hackday discussion of wanted/ available data

    You can probably get an idea of the sorts of transport data that Staffordshire County Council hold here http://bit.ly/jWLYJy #brewcamp

  7. @stulester is talking about gathering together 


    datasets
    organisations
    themes and ideas
     
    before the hackday.

    Donna from @digibrum suggests that we get people in to define some problems beforehand. Then, take a break before holding the day where you make an app or two.

    Excellent idea

  9. Right, it would appear that we have our first #Brewcamp scheme under way. Watch out for our Open Transport Data event(s), coming *gulp* soon.
