News from Spring DLC

Spring DLC was held in Kansas City, MO this year. Please visit the FDLP Desktop to link to the proceedings and other materials available from the conference. I'd like to keep the dialogue about it on this blog limited to specific questions that you may have regarding any of the meetings or panels that interest or confound you. Please look over the proceedings and post away!

If we keep this forum open, and I don't have an answer, maybe someone else will.

A fourth resolution, "Resolution on Safeguarding Electronic Government Information and E-Government," was drafted and approved at a joint meeting with COL-GIS (Committee on Legislation-Government Information Subcommittee).
