Re: w3.org/ns/opengov

Hi,
Why would you be using a namespace that you don't control? That is not advisable.
Second, you may wish to consider using persistent URLs like the worldwide library community does. The Government Printing Office also makes extensive use of PURLs for  the Federal Register & other important docs. 
There are several OSS projects that support PURLs including http://purlz.org and http://callimachusproject.org

Cheers,

What sort of usage do you have/expect etc. How stable is it now? Are we talking about frequent updates etc? Do you have it in multiple serialisations etc?

We'd love to have a nice easy to use tool but no one has had the time to build that so for now... it's all very manual. Unless there's a reason not to, please write to me directly and cc your CG's mailing list so we have a public archive.
