Who's behind Open Notificaties?
===============================

The Open Notificaties project was built for the `Open Zaak`_ project, initiated shortly
before the 1.0 release of the `VNG standards for "API's voor Zaakgericht werken"`_, on
August 1, 2019, by 9 municipalities:

* Amsterdam
* Rotterdam
* Utrecht
* Tilburg
* Arnhem
* Haarlem
* 's-Hertogenbosch
* Delft
* Hoorn, Medemblik, Stede Broec, Drechteland, Enkhuizen (SED)

Using `Dimpact`_ as a legal entity, they formed a project to develop a modern,
open-source data- and services-layer to enable `zaakgericht werken`_, in line with the
`Common Ground`_ model.
