W3C Day in Spain: HTML5 and Government Linked Data
Every year, since 2006, the W3C Spain Office organizes W3C Day in Spain, an event on Web standards for the Spanish community. The 2012 edition, held in Granada, Andalusia, gathered together over 200 people for a couple of days. W3C Members are the protagonists of the event. All of them are invited to share their professional experiences, challenges, and thoughts taking part either in panels or giving talks. As in previous years, the event served as a forum to discuss common topics regarding standards, and Web technologies in general. The Open Web Platform was the cornerstone of the conference, complemented with a recurrent and interesting subject: Open Government Data, which is in the limelight at all levels of the Spanish public administration.

The output is a set of 4 vocabularies that are designed to improve interoperability of public sector data. Developed initially in a European context, these vocabularies match deliverables of the W3C Government Linked Data Working Group which will develop them further to create globally recognized, stable standards that can be used with confidence by governments around the world.
