Sorry to hear you’re leaving the Beeb – your work at the BBC will be missed: you brought the site into the 21st century well ahead of the crowd, in so-doing raising standards by using well-chosen standards. Wherever you are going, I wish you the best of luck, and hop you keep in touch.

Have not been around for a while and unfortunately missed your drinks. Sad to see the BBC is losing you – there goes another person with the vision the BBC needs. I am grateful to you for the opportunity you gave me managing /programmes and all the support that you gave me throughout – best of luck in your exciting new role.

Thanks for getting back so quickly.

I didn’t realise that news agencies published (publicly addressable) URIs for their taxonomies. Not that I thought rNews should mint its own it would be good if there was a mechanism to cross link the New York Times’s “Egypt” with the Guardians URI for Egypt and the BBC’s. Clearly rNews is a big part of the equation in getting this to happen.

I guess I lead towards reuse – but perhaps that’s because I’m lazy :)

Good luck with rNews.
