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

Dear Victor,

  thanks for joining the discussion. I am a bit puzzled by your 
repsonse. Actually, I thought that we as LD4LT community would have most 
interest and expertise to contribute to questions 1 and 2.

I see this as a problem essentially of supporting linking and 
localization of product catalogues across countries. And to me this is a 
core topic for this community, would you not agree?

It is true that points 8 and 9 are not specific to LD4LT, but important 
topics that we should be aware of to create synergies between different 
initiatives.

So question back to you: which questions would you say are relevant to 
drive our R&D effort in the next 5-10 years?

Regards,

Philipp.
