Hi,

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to put together a compact resource pack to help evangelise open data with local government? I'm thinking primarily of a short slidedeck (say ~10 slides) together with a short document (~3 pages) that would help make the case. The target audience would be middle management (people in charge of implementing policy) rather then high-level policy makers. The focus would be on concrete outcomes around issues such as efficiency and cost-savings, improved cross-department communication within government, increasing citizen participation, models for sustainable data publication, routes to better data quality. 

I'm sure all these issues have been addressed in existing resources, but it would be good to bring them together in one bundle. Has it already been done? Thanks in advance for any suggestions and pointers.
