Joining the Open Knowledge Foundation team

It is with great joy that I can announce that as of January 14, 2013, I am officially part of the Open Knowledge Foundation team. I will be working with community management within two areas; Open Government Data and the global community of Local Groups.

Open Knowledge Foundation (OKF) is officially described as a global movement to open up knowledge around the world and see it used and useful. OKF brings together a diverse community, building a network of individuals and organisations, founded on key principles.The OKF is trusted, non-partisan, pioneering, passionate and create change by educating, empowering, evangelising and making.

It all pretty much boils down to opening data across the globe and help people and organizations use it to create prosperity, embrace transparency and technology - and improve society. Read more on the official website, see the team and follow the Twitter stream.

Although I'll be spending the vast majority of my working time (and probably lots of early and late hours) to boost OKF, I will continue to cultivate other projects on the side. This means among other that Uhrlaut Records will keep going strong (new release coming out in the spring '13) and the same goes for other current and future projects.
