[Open-Legislation] [open-government] Call for Collaboration:publicbodies.org

[JOSEFSSON Erik]

Hello,

I would be delighted to set up a workshop or seminar or conference (or an escalating series of meetings) to link these projects/ambitions with the growing need in the EP to modernise internal working procedures, improve internal and external knowledge sharing, and increase citizens' expectations on transparency in the EU institutions.

For starters, EPFSUG is a cross party platform :-)

Best regards,

For our english friends: can we do it for MEPs?

yes! We talked a bit last week about creating neutral URIs for
procedures, MEPs etc. sourrounding the European Parliament and
Commission. This would be a great way to make the databases of
itsyourparliament, parltrack and others interlinkable and to allow
those of us who work on national level legislation to link upstream
without settling on one service.

My proposed domain name would be parliamentdata.eu which is still
free. What do people think?

p.s. Really this is a job for the publications office but what the heck.
