House Legislative Data and Transparency Conference #LDTC

Feb. 1, 2012, 10:31 a.m.

Tomorrow is a big day for transparency, with the House of Representatives convening a full-day conference on public access to legislative information. (The agenda is online here.) I understand that there are efforts afoot to livestream the proceedings, although I don't have all the details. But there is a hashtag -- #LDTC -- so expect livetweeting and perhaps more conference details as we get closer.

Thanks for the update, Daniel, and for your efforts to help those of
us who can't be there to participate. It was great, also to see Jim
Harper's email yesterday, with the detailed data model proposal. His
recommendations are quite ambitious, but there is precedent for such
data models in the work of Grant Vergottini in California, and others.

And just another 2 cents for my basic suggestions to write amendments
as complete replacements for sections (as opposed to piecemeal) and to
commit to positive law codification by (say) 2014.

Best,
Ari
