[open-government] Guide to open data for non-developers

Fri Mar 25 15:50:13 GMT 2011

This is something I'd be happy to input into, or to offer the embryonic Open
Data Cook Book project as a space for this: http://www.opendatacookbook.net

Very much looking in that focus on small recipes that address step-by-step
the different parts of using open data, but that do so in a mix-and-match
way that represents the reality of how most open data use happens.

I know Rolf Kleef and others involved on open development data did some work
at yesterday's Open Data Campaigning Camp (
http://opendatacampaigningcamp.eventbrite.com) to sketch out modifications
to the Open Data Manual which might help non-developers / manangers / others
to get their heads around the publishing side of open data.

All the best
