> I was recently appointed to the Government 2.0 Taskforce
>
http://www.gov2.net.au. Our terms of reference include
> advising the Minister (Lindsay Tanner) on making government
> more open with regard to Public Sector Information and
> Digital Engagement.
>
> The taskforce has a number of initiatives underway and there
> are currently some that might be of interest to OSIA members.
>
> The Blog is currenlty our main form of engagement with people
> intereested in Government 2.0 issues. It has been very active
> and we encourage people to contribute.
>
> We released an issues paper for comment and while the date
> for that is passed, if you have a contribution to that
> process please let me know.

> There is also a twitter tag #gov2au that has been busy as well.
>
> You will see from the discussion that the taskforce is
> actively promoting open standards, and open access licensing
> such as Creative Commons. There is a lot of support for Open Source.
>
> It would be great if OSIA could contribute and I am happy to
> discuss ways for that to happen.
