Hey team,
Can I get a volunteer or two to provide standby technical support for Digital Democracy's hackathon in Port-au-Prince this weekend?
http://digital-democracy.org/2013/01/31/first-hackathon-to-be-held-in-haiti-cross-cultural-collaboration-to-create-community-driven-solutions/
Digital Democracy, a fellow traveller in humanitarian activities, are hosting a hackathon in PaP to create a map of women's health clinics in Haiti to support victims of sexual violence. Of course they are planning to use OSM as a basemap, and probably Nominatim for search. Several of the hackathon organizers are friends of ours, including Willow Brugh, Emily Jacobi, and Sara-Jayne Farmer.
Is there anyone who is willing to be available on IM or Skype to answer questions during the daytime on Saturday and Sunday Haitian local time (UTC-5)? Extra bonus points for francophones.
Please let me know off-list and I'll put you in touch with the organizers.
<3,
SDE
