Location

In the hands of the Location & Addresses Community Group, chaired by Andrea Perego and Michael Lutz from the JRC

Some interest, seeing use of the address aspects, but limited progress

New activity within W3C and JRC, lots of good communication, expect 1 or 2 workshops in the new year

Watch out for new SmartOpenData project beginning November

Learned from this process and schema.org development process

New emphasis on availability of http://www.w3.org/ns/... namespace

Community Group → may use namespace, guarantees of persistence etc.
