Hi all,

Today I submitted the 360Giving standard as a challenge to the UK government open-standards repo. You can see it here: https://github.com/alphagov/open-standards/issues/63

The next step is as follows:

1. Response stage

A panel of technology experts will choose some suggestions to become challenges and appoint a [challenge owner](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/who-selects-open-standards#challenge-owner) to act as a champion for each. We’ll publish those here so users can respond to them by recommending standards or approaches that might solve them.

#### How you can get involved:

- read [current challenges](https://github.com/alphagov/tech-and-data-standards/issues) other people’s responses
- make or comment a response (offer a solution)

You can read about the full process in [the repo](https://github.com/alphagov/open-standards).
