Dear All, There will be a meeting on the Strategy development for the Thematic Subject Matter Specialist Mechanism of Jatiyo e-Tathyakosh ( www.infokosh.bangladesh.gov.bd) at 2:00pm on 12 April, 2011 at the office of Bangladesh Betar (121 Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue). The meeting is organized by Access to Information (a2i) Programme, Prime Minister's Office. We need to present Wikipedia and share the experiences with them.
If you are interested to join the meeting to present Wikipedia and your experiences, please let me know.
Regards, Belayet
Belayet Bhai,
I will try to attend. Do we know the list of attendees from the side of a2i. Presence of someone from the senior technology personnel would be vitally useful. As the meeting will be about synergy of ideology at the same time convergence of technology.
There is one interesting topic, district info portals are initiated for all the districts and some of them are already generating good amount of content. Most of the sites have usage rules (see link: http://goo.gl/1biMd) . Which says the information local to the site are property of respective district administration. On the same page, it allows any visitor to take print of the content without change. On the bottom of the page is says "* স্বত্বাধিকার:* মন্ত্রিপরিষদ বিভাগ ".
No clear guideline is given about if it is permissible for other websites using content and information from these sites. As a2i is involved as planning and technology partner, wikipedia can request the authority to improve their policy so that information published by the government can be re-used as open content at other places.
Most modern government releases information on the .gov websites as copyright free public domain information. An example can be ( http://www.whitehouse.gov/copyright) Which uses creative commons licence. I guess as wiki we do have combined bargaining power to help shaping government policies where they do need all the help they can get.
Thanks
Farid

Farid Bhai, Thank you for your proposition. It is right that we should approach them to make their content reusable for others. But I think this is not the right time to ask and push them to do that. Because to do that we need to work with govt policy level and right now we don't have any legal entity as an organization to work on this level. More over govt people are not much aware about that kind of collaborative culture, so we can not expect more from them at this moment. But this is a good opportunity to aware some of top level decision makers about Wikipedia, how it works and raise the issue of open culture, free license, collaborative projects etc.
I don't know the exact information about attendees. From A2i they informed me that they have a small committee to work on the strategy for Jatiyo e-Tathyakosh. And the committee formed with some top level officials from different Govt and non-Govt organizations.
