[open-government] We need international open government data principles

[Ivan Begtin]

Hi Jonathan.
    I think it's very important. And it's will be even more important if we
will have any chance to get support for those principles of
intergovernmental bodies.

Sad to say but russian officials actually motivated by low ratings of Russia
made by UN, ITU and WorldBank (DoingBusiness).

Sure we could do a lot without any government support  but open framework
will speed up data opening.
Also here in Russia we have licensing vacuum about government information.
So I think that basic framework and implementation roadmap are very
important.

I will be happy to help so much as I can.
