Re: JISC Open Bib Guide

This is a blog post by a representative of the funders (JISC) that gives 
some background and I believe Owen Stephens was blogging about the 
process (possibly more about how to get the blog to provide the views 
and aspects of the use cases).

I'll try and find Owen Stephen's blog for you - but I believe he is on 
the public lld list as well so you could ask there if you wanted.

I can pass on your questions to the appropriate people and relay their 
answers (as I am a JISC representative on the XG) but if you are happy 
to move the discussion to the open list I will draw their attention so 
they can engage directly (seems less cumbersome).
