Dear Paul,

This sounds very interesting and I am looking fwd to hear more about
the witepaper and its adoption.

http://okfnpad.org/ogdcamp-fr

Its basically a list of country based input on the "state of play" on
national OGD licensing. I am afraid this is not a very solid basis,
and would need for more research.

All the best
Daniel
