Grant Vergottini of Xcential Group has posted International Open Standards Hackathon, on his Legix.info blog.
Here is an excerpt of the post:
To further promote and to publicize Akoma Ntoso, I am working with Ari Hershowitz @arihersh to stage an international hackathon within the next few months. The idea is to provide an event for people that will demystify XML and Akoma Ntoso [...] by providing a really easy way for anyone to create a document using the proposed standard. Our goal will be to collect a world’s worth of legislative samples. This could be an important step towards building a library that stitches together all the world’s laws and regulations in an open and transparent way.
We’re currently seeking sponsors, participants, and venues for this hackathon. The interest we have found so far has been quite amazing. If you are interested in helping us make this event a success, please let either Ari or me know.
For more information, please see the complete post.
