Thanks for this.  It’s a good approach - data that people want is more likely to get used!

As a historical note the UK Government started on its Open Data journey with a “Show Us A Better Way” competition which appealed for suggestions on what data should be released and what could be done with it.

An interesting development in Bremen:

They are asking the public in a consultation which kind of data should be released - they take suggestions and after the consultation there will be another consultation in order to prioritize the order of the release of data.

It is certainly an interesting and welcome approach - but the concrete realization seems a bit clunky - but have a look for yourself - sorry it is in German only:
