Hello my name is John Verdon - I am new to wikipedia and interested in becoming more involved. But the reason I am contacting you is below :)
Would you be interested in attending a meeting of a small group. We are interested in re-imagining local news as civic information. I've been reading 'Wikipedia @20' and I think a Wikipedian could contribute great value to the discussion. We have invited National Capital Freenet, some journalists, local community organizations/newsletters and some young design students.
Ideas, Welcome — Civic Information and Civic Media
Thursday September 21 (7PM-9PM)

3-815 St. Laurent Blvd
On behalf of the Rideau-Rockcliffe Community Resource Centre, you are welcome to join a by-invitation-only event devoted to deep conversations about the state of civic information in our communities. With the erosion of traditional local journalism we are witnessing a transition to innovative community-based models of civic information and civic media. Please visit our event description to learn more about the session details (location, date & time, and much more).
If you would like to participate please reply. If you are unable to join us we would be grateful for any media article, weblink or other information source you recommend for further enlightenment on this topic. We will be happy to mention your name as the source of the information
