Link-up to another ODD event, in Portland, Oregon. Contacts: Danielle Robinson, Max Ogden

Their event aims to continue to "rescue" US federal research data, with a focus on ensuring each dataset has the appropriate metadata, and adding it if needed. Their saturday hack is focussed on the datasets in the queue for them via https://www.archivers.space/.

I'm running through the workflow for this today; and will speak with the organiser @daniellecrobinson tonight. Therefore, best time to contribute to this would probably be tomorrow, and I'd be happy to walk you through it / answer any Qs.

I got a little way through the workflow and sent some comments over to Danielle (see https://via.hypothes.is/https://github.com/daniellecrobinson/Data-Rescue-PDX/blob/master/README.md). No other contributions.
