Folks

Subsequent to Leon niggling the UK Govt to use open data formats; see his 
letter to LNW

http://lwn.net/2002/0103/letters.php3

This report may or may not be the revised version of the one 'e took 
'umbridge at :-)

http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/interoperability/egif_document.asp?docnum=430

I still think it is a pretty insightful prediction for OSS now and in the 
next five years. You have to consider the conservatism and inertia of the 
authors expected audience.

Any comment from Leon ? :-)

Cheers
Harry
