Re: Ten Questions for the Implementation of the Digital Single Market

Dear Philipp, all,

I had read the same sources you cite in the PPT and in consequence I 
share your view.
Nevertheless, I would like to comment on the questions. See below.

I dont think there is much we can do regarding 1-2)

There is a recent Directive (Directive 2013/11 on alternative dispute 
resolution for consumer disputes) and a new Regulation (Regulation  No 
524/2013 on online dispute resolution for consumer disputes), and the
Online Dispute Resolution is a hot topic in the EC agenda. There are a 
few hundreds ADR systems in force, and there is a plea in favour of 
their coordination.
Multilingual Linked Data can play a role here but not a leading role. It 
would be good knowing the requirements of the ODR/ADR community and 
determining if we can be of help.

This problem is not specific of the Multilingual Linked Data

This belongs to the private law sphere, and we can do little here, but 
provide the means for a data market --for which we are working already 
at LIDER.
