Eat sushi and talk open source with Knight-Mozilla OpenNews

Open-source software drives today's most innovative journalism projects, from data analysis to visualization. And code incubated in newsrooms--from Django to Backbone to D3--is part of what makes the modern web possible. There's exciting work being done at the intersection of journalism and open-source code, and you can be part of it.

Come join team members from Knight-Mozilla OpenNews and Hacks/Hackers for lunch or coffee on Wednesday, July 22, and let's talk about ways to get involved in the journalism-code community. We'll be:

• at Sushi Ichiban (24 NW Broadway, downtown Portland) for lunch from noon to 1:30pm.

• at Heart Coffee (537 SW 12th Ave, downtown Portland) for caffeine at 2pm.

We'd love to meet you and chat about the projects you're working on, as well as jobs and fellowship opportunities you might be interested in.

OpenNews is a joint project of Mozilla and the Knight Foundation that supports the growing community of news developers, designers, and data reporters helping journalism thrive on the open web. The Knight-Mozilla fellowships embed technologists in newsrooms around the world for 10 months of journalism R&D. Read about what it's like to work in a newsroom.

    I can't make it to sushi. But I can make it to coffee. Are you still planning to do coffee at 2? Excited for this!
