Hi everyone

As promised - here's a summary of what I think we agreed

1. Open Data  - we should use the consultation exercise to ask for the
planning application data feeds that go to the OS on a regular basis; and
for the highway engineering data ( e.g turn restrictions, speed limits);
And thinking about this after the event the road name data for new roads
2. Winter gritting - Andy M will contact Dudley to release their data and
contact Birmingham for  any changes from last year
3. Next month we'll meet in Coventry. Rob/Matt to decide on venue
4. Twitter event as we approach adding the final building to Birmingham
6. Discussion around automation of contacting  new editors but I'm not sure
what conclusion we came to
5. Brian to add wiki page for discussion about producing a new paper map
for March 2013 - mainly to decide on cartographic style and what to include
and how to pay for it.
7. SOTM 2013: Brian to collate info once Andy M and Andy R document briefly
their contacts for circulation to this list for approval and then to the gb
wiki page  in order to promote Birmingham at the preferred Uk site for a
bid. Rob, Matt, Andy M and AndyR(for early 2013 only) all agreed to devote
 time to some aspect of the organisation. Andrew McK was also volunteered
in his absence for his links around Open Data

Any ommissions or corrections gratefully received

Regards

Brian
