In case you’re wondering why it’s been a little silent on the blog and the mail list recently, we’ve begun drafting our report. The group has broken down into smaller groups each working on a different section of the report. I’ve been working on the section of the report that will recommend using structured data formats to publish the status of legislation, and it’s coming along nicely thanks to the help of some others. We should be done with our section in the next few days, and I’m looking forward to seeing what the other sections will look like.
This probably puts us a little bit behind schedule for issuing the report this month, but I thought that was too optimistic all along. The extra time that has gone into getting background facts and carefully hacking out the issues for and against each recommendation has been incredibly useful.
