[open-government] Public Data Catalog Priorities and Demand

Mon Jan 10 08:50:52 UTC 2011

Dear Antti, Dear Steven,

I do appreciate your enthusiasm.
But open data and PSI re-use have been heavily researched and debated
on for now 14 years and not one.

All the addressed topics and questions can be found in plenty of 
publications,
either those of my colleagues or mine. Or addressed in previous EU projects.
However, most publications are not for free.
not only legal bus also businss opportunities and markets have been 
dealt with.

You might redo the same work, but it will be very time-consuming.
Insiders know quite well which kind of PSI is asked for and what less.
And where the re-use barriers are constituted in Europe.

Best,

Gerhard
