@lesteph that’s why I prefer text files - much less easy to mess things up.

@MafJohnson @pezholio @allyhook Im only just getting started on some of these things- someone will have to explain them to me at some point!

via TweetDeck in reply to MafJohnson

@allyhook @pezholio no idea I’m afraid! I’m dealing with local services and the data that comes out of Local Directgov, so don’t touch IPSV

@saulcozens I’ll get the govspeak readme up-to-date tomorrow

via TweetDeck in reply to saulcozens

@saulcozens govspeak though is an extension of kramdown (http://t.co/KFNZh7wo) which itself an extension of markdown IIRC

via TweetDeck in reply to saulcozens

@saulcozens There are various things like that in govspeak, e.g. stuff wraped in $C is contact info, $D is downloads, $! are summaries etc.

via TweetDeck in reply to saulcozens

@simond what I will do however is make sure the govspeak readme is accurate & up to date. @GovUK

via TweetDeck in reply to simond

@simond I wish - just another item on the list of things I want to do. Only so much one person can do!
