Hi Guys I have it on good authority that joining the list, and immediately starting a new thread is a good way to volunteer. I think some people will recognise me anyway from ORG-discuss and the London Hack Space*, so I'll skip introductions as well, just to make sure I break enough rules of netiquette ;-)
So anyway... this week Tim Berners-Lee published some design notes regarding his discussions with US and UK governments about putting data on-line. They essentially say "Raw Data Now!" and "Linked Data!!". The long version is here: http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/GovData.html I've been learning, tinkering with and occasionally advocating Linked Data, SPARQL, RDFa etc for a while and have been using it in anger too with boring work projects and wrt Search Monkey. Should you be called upon to assist Government folk with this kind of thing and find you need someone to do the actual work then count me in. I should be at the The Hub for the next hack evening if you want to quiz me in person. thanks Simon Gibbs
