Hi Julien,<br>
<br>
My 5 ct:<br>
<br>
I would mention open source as open formats more as a
"recommendation". If we are talking about Open Data, the most
important part is that the dataset has an open license. From the
moment there is an open license which complies to the open
definition, all the rest is policy and technology:<br>
If you want to maximize reuse in a sustainable way, using open
formats is a very pragmatic choice. Same holds true for Open Source:
it is a pragmatic choice to limit vendor lock-in, to have an open
governance and so on...<br>
<br>
Furthermore, I'm really in favour of submitting as one group, but
that's up to you, Ben and Philippe to decide :)<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Pieter<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
@Ben : I had contact with Philippe D. who works on this topic.<br>
<br>
The idea was to synchronize the OSM and OKFN work on this topic,
but give back two advices. We are thinking that repeating things
twice may have a bigger impact... (We do not know if this is
true...)<br>
<br>
@all :<br>
<br>
I have a question regarding the OSM opinion : do you think whe
should keep the chapter about Free Software ? <br>
<br>
Open Source and Open Data are two differents subjects. Enemies of
Open Data may counter-argues that "for doing Open Data, you must
use Open Source and this is a problem", which is not the reality
(ESRI does Open Data). <br>
<br>
Having in the same document arguments in favors of Open data AND
Open Source is difficult, because they are differents topics,
which are related, but not completely.<br>
<br>
The risk is to loose the "pro-" open data which are not "pro-"
open source.<br>

<div>Hi Julien,<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I already read part of your comments but I will try and
have a closer look soon... I also received word that OKFN is
doing the same. Maybe we could merge this work with theirs?<br>
