First, I wrapped the text and submitted
https://github.com/okfn/opendefinition/pull/1 as Rufus sort of
suggested on call. Here's an easier to read diff
https://github.com/mlinksva/opendefinition/commit/43a9bf2c60147351d6d30cfcbce6507cf8a2e53b

I'm probably going to suggest one further change for readability and
accuracy before sending a draft writeup, within the next few days.

> 5. Kenyan OGD license compliance with OD. Daniel did contact them 15th August but no replay. Discussion on how we are doing on reaching out, following up with non compliant licenses issues. Agreed we could do much better and that it is important to track this and to publicly document our concerns and attempts.

IIRC Ireland is the one not contacted at all thus far.

Will work on this per above.

I inserted action item so that it doesn't get missed again, but
someone who has access to
http://opendefinition.org/licenses/nonconformant/ and
http://opendefinition.org/licenses/ will have to do it.

I assume these are just wordpress pages as I can't find in any
https://github.com/okfn repository.
