Law.gov

Publicresource.org is part of group of legal scholars hosting a series of workshops with the ultimate goal of developing an open source repository of authenticated primary legal materials to be know as Law.gov.

Law.Gov would be similar to Data.Gov, providing bulk data and feeds to commercial, non-commercial, and governmental organizations wishing to build web sites, operate legal information services, or otherwise use the raw materials of our democracy.

The goal is to deliver a detailed report by mid 2010 on exactly what it would take to create this repository, including technical specifications and an economic impact statement.
