Your description sounds quite close to what we had in mind. The high level
group is manifesting quite well, the domain groups are planned as pilots for
selected domains (e.g. Law or Mobility).
I lost a bit the overview on the data classification. We might auto-link or
crowdsource. I would need to ask others, however.
We are aiming to create a structure that allows stability and innovation in an
economic way - - I see this as the real challenge...
Jolly good show,
Sebastian
