I belive this would be beneficial for a few reasons: a) Developing nations/agencies that are only just looking at this will obviously benefit b) Collating them and even working them into StratML (looking at Owen here ;) ) so that we can compare standards/BP's would certainly give a picture of commonality which would be a good starting point for an "International BP for e-Gov" as covered in TF 3 discussed in the meeting c) It will just make it easier for anyone interested in this to find, which further increases the W3C's reputation as a reliable and good source of information, and adds further incentive for those undergoing a redevelopment or review of their existing BP guidelines to turn to W3C for advice/information d) I believe if we could do this in a collaborative way with initiatives already mentioned we could eventually stop reinventing the wheel, release them as a W3C document, and maintain this common BPs at W3C - As stated by Jose without changes :) This certainly ties in with the E&O deliverable/TF (as should any thing e-Gov IG does :) ) Cheers -- Chris > Agree. > What is more... something we slightly discussed as group (ages ago) is > if it would make sense to do that research and try to extract the > common thing to build some sort of easy standard best practices at W3C > based on those and W3C expertise and existing stuff. > > I would like to hear opinions about this.
