[euopendata] Welcome to new EU open data call participants!

Wed Feb 10 12:58:49 UTC 2010

Likewise, thanks for the welcome

My name is Ivan Herman, I am currently the Semantic Web Activity Lead at
the W3C. Though formally I am a researcher at the Center for Mathematics
and Computer Sciences (CWI) in Amsterdam, I am on a 'loan' to W3C...

As a proper Web person, I would rather refer to my home page at W3C:

http://www.w3.org/People/Ivan

rather than repeating everything that is there...

Cheers

Ivan
