Thanks Rufus!

Any thoughts on the list I sent? Anything missing?  It is for a technical
framework doc under discussion at the moment

I am finding a disconnect in open data communities re-standards that
support exchange and interoperability beyond the data format or linked
data.  For example, in that list I sent, everything after *ISO 8601 *is
what i added.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This document goes for discussion
and potential signoff tmr!

Cheers
t
