Passing along news of a day-long programming event on Seattle UW campus in November.  If creative collaboration resulting in structured data mashups sounds appealing, this might be for you...

"[It's] a great introduction to the idea of mashups and to some of
the services OCLC is offering in that area.  Even if they don’t program,
there are usually plenty of attendees who do that there’s interesting stuff to
participate in.  
 
Here’s a pointer to our page on it: http://worldcat.org/devnet/wiki/2009WAMashathon"

And...  "For those who don't know, OCLC is the
heavyweight in the world of library catalogs and data, and has been
instrumental in search and access technology for many years."

Cheers,
--Trevor
