Dear all, 

just letting you know that this month was published the first number of a "Journal of Open Access to Law", a new journal from Cornell University Legal Informatics Institute: 

http://ojs.law.cornell.edu/index.php/joal/index

Also, I am pleased to share with you a forthcoming paper, to be published in the second number of the aforementioned journal, on the use of Open Linked Data standards:

http://ssrn.com/abstract=2371795 or http://hdl.handle.net/10609/26261
(working draft, we will love to receive feedback)

The paper presents the Open Science Data Cloud project, Neocodex, a collaboration between researchers and professors from Stanford Law School and other institutions to develop open source technology for integrating, analyzing and making available information from all international courts and national jurisdictions in open linked data standards, including the automated processing, analysis and visualization of social networks (neutrals, litigants, and other entities), semantic networks (citations, case-law contents, legal knowledge) and publication of corpus collections with added metadata:

It would be great if we could create synergies with this Working Group. In any case, we are completely open and looking forward to establish new partnerships with interested organizations and individuals.

Happy holidays, and my best wishes for 2014!
