Politics of Publication
@@@ overview page
Aligning Governance
- Government data is usually created and governed by someone
- Try to use existing governance structures for Linked Data publishing
- Operates at different levels
- Who can have a .gov domain?
- How to mint URIs?
- Who should mint URIs?
- Which URIs should I use?
- What URIs are promoted for wider use within government?
Continuity Policies
Maintaining Provenance
- Important for government data and a key part of responsible publishing
- Helps data consumers know what they are dealing with
- Operates at different levels
- Organisational level - who made this data, how and when?
- File level - what processing was done to make this file, when?
- Can be done simply (eg Dublin Core Terms) or with more sophistication (eg using OPMV specialisations)
