RE: Legislation on the web...

Hi Peter,
 
It would certainly be very interesting to discuss any synergies between the work you are doing and the work we do on behalf of John.
 
Do you have any published material yet from that project that we could take a look at (or even the existing material to get a feel for where you are coming from)?
 
Regards
 
Paul

 Peter,
 
 I'm responsible for the development of the UK Government's "official legislation website" - and also for official Gazettes  on the web (the London, Belfast and Edinburgh Gazettes).
 
 See: http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2008/ukpga_20080003_en_1 for an example of how we publish legislation (it is semantic HTML and we use a bit of GRDDL too). We've published our XML Schema here: http://www.opsi.gov.uk/legislation/schema/

 We're really keen to share ideas!
 
 I've cc'ed some of the others involved.

 Dear egov-ig group members,
 
 Is there anyone else that is involved in a project that aims to put
 your national legislation on the web? We are currently half way
 through a project where we use a lot of W3C standards/technology (e.g.
 RDFa, OWL, RDFS, XHTML et al) to put swedish legislation online in a
 better shape than what exists today.
 
 I was thinking that projects of this type would be similar (from a
 technology perspective) in many countries and it would be interesting
 to share ideas.
 
 Kind regards,
 
 Peter Krantz
