Aside from Limn I cannot think of any other visualization project at WMF. Could we use this opportunity to pitch data sources that we're already publishing along with examples of third-party visualizations of this data?

Hi All!

I actually just spoke to one of the organizers of this conference, who asked me if Wikipedia would be interested in speaking at the summit about a case study of data visualization. I personally love presenting and wish our team was far enough along the path of visualization that I could do it...but, we're not there yet :)

Does anyone else have an interest in presenting? If so, I can send some more information. If you are a presenter, the $2K registration fee is waived. I'm also pushing for a nonprofit discount for non-presenters, and she acted like that was entirely possible and is going to get back to me.

ALSO - there is another summit happening simultaneously to this one called the "Big Data Innovation Summit." This is the computer science side, while the data visualization summit is focused on the creative. This might be of more interest to many of you.
