RE: Draft agenda for Sept. 20 W3C eGov meeting

Thanks for an excellent meeting. My three suggestions for differentiating
our work from that of the other group are to take on bigger challenges:

 

Improve government web sites (e.g. recent announcement in US)

 

Enter app contests (e,g, EPA Apps for the Environment - see my You Tube
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgg-HuVl2io)

 

Write data stories to go with 5 star data publishing to demonstrate value of
data to public and decision-makers (e.g. AOL Government:

Brand
