- josema : it is the Nat archives core business
- 13:57:29 [John]
- Yup!
- 13:58:14 [josema]
- benjamin: use case proposed was copying encrypted document ??
- 13:58:18 [John]
- would be good to identify which W3C groups we should be talking to
- 13:58:22 [josema]
- ... I might contribute in that aspect
- 13:58:29 [BeNg]
- copying encrypted document on a large P2P network

- s/comments/commons
- 14:01:44 [BeNg]
- .. but this licence could be conflicting with the one used in the UK
- 14:01:52 [John]
- the licence and the technology (cc's use of RDFa) are very interesting
- 14:02:07 [BeNg]
- martin : yes, using creative comments restricts some rights granted with the licence used today
- 14:02:20 [BeNg]

- josema, listening for 11 seconds I could not identify any sounds
- 14:04:11 [kjetil]
- well, what I was going to say that what the license says and the technical aspects are different
- 14:04:34 [kjetil]
- so, the CC RDF/RDFa things could be used
- 14:05:04 [kjetil]
- even though one would need different URIs for the actual license permissions and restrictions

- josema : topic 10 : What Data? How does the government decide?
- 14:14:46 [martin]
- A disclaimer on infomation found on government websites may in the future be legally binding
- 14:14:48 [BeNg]
- ... 1) how does the gov decide what data should be made available
- 14:15:03 [BeNg]
- ... in some countries like the US, there are laws in place stating this
- 14:15:12 [BeNg]
- ... in other countries (spain) this does not exist
- 14:15:24 [BeNg]
- ... 2) what's the best way to put the data out there
- 14:15:45 [BeNg]
- ... need to convince some govs of the benefic it has of providing the data
- 14:15:52 [BeNg]

- owen : in the US, under the electronic freedom act amendment
- 14:18:05 [BeNg]
- .. agencies must make available any record that are requested by one individual
- 14:18:11 [BeNg]
- ... and of interest for at least 3 others
- 14:18:25 [BeNg]
- ... agencies must make resonable efforts to share them in any format they are requested
- 14:18:40 [BeNg]
- ... the application is clear : agencies must create and maintain a readily shareable format, such as XML
- 14:19:06 [BeNg]
- ... if they do not do that they break the spirit of the law
- 14:19:52 [BeNg]
- josema : is the issue that they know how to publish in open formats but do not do it ?
- 14:20:00 [BeNg]
- ... or that they do not know how to publish in open format
- 14:20:34 [BeNg]
- owen : several issues
- 14:20:55 [BeNg]
- ... long in responding to requests, agnecies claim they do not have the resources to make information available in a timely manner
- 14:21:15 [BeNg]
- ... sometimes this is true due to security issues, in other cases, it is a design issu problem with their information systems
- 14:21:27 [BeNg]
- josema : propose some guidelines to them
- 14:21:55 [BeNg]
- owen : they should start by publishing on their web site XML schemas for all their information collections
- 14:22:08 [BeNg]
- ... so we can understand what data they have and build a registry bottom up
- 14:22:29 [BeNg]
- ... once we have understood what information they have, we must then publish to what extent they are publishing said information
- 14:22:49 [BeNg]
- ... and take actions if they are not offering enough information
- 14:23:13 [BeNg]
- ... the data reference model is about sharing of data. I was a member of the WG that produced this model
- 14:23:37 [BeNg]
- ... agencies must implement the DRM as XML Schema on their web sites
- 14:23:47 [BeNg]
- ... but they pushed back against the use of this global schema
- 14:23:54 [josema]
- rrsagent, pointer?
- 14:23:54 [RRSAgent]
- See http://www.w3.org/2008/10/29-egov-irc#T14-23-54
