In early December 2007 30 open government advocates
gathered to develop a set of principles of open government data. The
meeting, held in Sebastopol, California, was designed to develop a more
robust understanding of why open government data is essential to
democracy. Of these principles I'm most involved with accessiblity. At delicious social bookmarking site, I've tagged loads of resources with accessibility. My accessibility tags at delicious go back to January 2006--almost two years of concern.
