Portions of my friends list are not on the friends list of the organiser of the following event, yet will be interested in this. You may imagine that Venn diagram for yourself, I'm not Dave Gorman.

Thursday 15 March 2007: Free our Data? University of Manchester. 6pm - Tea and Coffee reception; 6:30pm - 8pm - Panel Session. Tickets must be reserved in advance - links and stuff (including which BBC reporter is chairing it)* on the National Centre for e-Social Science events page. This appears to be e-Social_Science rather than Science of e-Social but it would appear that the more general ID card worries of the public are as welcomed as the "can we interrogate Government data for research" queries of e-academics. And No2ID are promoting the event.

There will apparently be a webcast, but I am considering attending in person if I can wangle the afternoon off (only way of guaranteeing that I'm out of work early enough).

* I could have just said Jim Hancock, but I thought I'd mimic the North West Tonight preview section of the Six O'Clock News Hour. "Coming up in 25 minutes, why this boy can't play the trombone" etc etc.
