[Everton Zanella Alvarenga]

Dear Scott and John,

these  guidelines and policies are being of great help. I'm studying
them. If I have any question, I will do it here.

Thank you very much!

Tom

>> While broader than just open data, several organizations in the U.S. have
>> worked together to create a model local open government directive that can
>> be tailored for a city, county, state, or other government entity to create
>> a legal framework for supporting open government (transparency, open data,
>> citizen participation, and collaboration).

>> The model local open government directive is available at

>> Currently, Cook County, IL is moving towards implementing an open government
