[Talk-in] CBI & google maps

[Sajjad Anwar]

My thoughts are not very strong but, I think as long as we leave the vital
points and defense installations out of the map, we won't grab much
attention.

Through Datameet and NIC, some of us are trying to setup a meeting with a
few SoI officials to talk about opening up some data. More about that soon,
when something concrete comes up.

Cheers,
Sajjad.
