[okfn-discuss] Open Definition 2.0?

[Everton Zanella Alvarenga]

Hi.

In my opinion, important changes of the open definition (OD) should be sent
to the *okfn-discuss* and* okfn-local-coord *mailing lists, since a lot of
our is based on the OD.

If that was not the case (I cannot check if there is some relevant
improvement now), I kindly ask for we have some extra time for we check
with our local collaborators at the open knowledge network for a proof
reading.

If we don't have time for some reason and there is some substantial change
that affect all of us, well, patience.

Tom
