Does anyone know of a good working definition of machine readability?
Something we hear very often in relation to opening up government data
-- but something I've more often heard illustrated (databases, PDFs,
etc) than defined (e.g. criteria). Feel like necessary/sufficient
conditions might be tough. Any ideas?
