Very regrettably and unfortunately I had to cancel very late on in the day! Although I'm sure many people are already aware of such news via mailing lists etc. I thought it may be of interest to post a recent thread [0] which appeared on the open-government OKFN list. During one of our previous TC calls + in Paris open government data conference I remember hearing that AT4AM is/was thinking about using Akoma Ntoso as the primary data representation format. All the best for now Lewis [0]
