They are soliciting comment by November 30, 2019. This should be of considerable interest to many members of the CNI community. Background on the work, and a pointer to the white paper, can be found at https://www.arl.org/news/arl-news/4682-arl-wikimedia-and-linked-open-data-draft-white-paper-open-for-comments-through-november-30 Clifford Lynch Director, CNI
