    <p>Folks, an update on this thread:</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>The call for comment on the Open Government National Action Plan
      is out:<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

    <p>I've reached out to the Linux Australia community to see who
      might be interested:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.linux.org.au/pipermail/linux-aus/2018-February/023361.html">http://lists.linux.org.au/pipermail/linux-aus/2018-February/023361.html</a></p>
    <p>And I'm getting close to having a draft response for review,
      which hopefully should be ready within a week or so.</p>
    <p>Cheers, Cameron<br>

      <p>I'm planning to build a response to the Open Government
        Partnership Plan, as referenced below.</p>
      <p>And I think that it would be worth framing a variant of this
        response from both OSIA and Linux Australia.ild</p>
      <p>I'll welcome co-collaborators in building such a response. Feel
        free to reach out to me directly if you want to be actively
        involved. Otherwise I'll reach out periodically with my
