[okfn-za] City of Cape Town's open data policy

Sat Sep 27 12:47:56 UTC 2014

SMS from Xanthea* just now:
"Because council meeting was on Thursday the minutes of the meeting are
still being processed and there were additional amendments made to the
policy during the council meeting and those need to be incorporated before
it is loaded on the city website. I will try and make sure it's on the
website by Monday."

*Councillor Xanthea Limberg, Mayoral Committee Member for Corporate
Services,
