Thanks for sharing these links Heather.  Plenty of food for thought.
The comment from Tracey Lauriault on Ted's post is as interesting as
the post itself as is her link to

Best Practices for Sharing Sensitive Environmental Geospatial Data
ftp://ftp2.cits.rncan.gc.ca/pub/geott/ess_pubs/288/288863/cgdi_ip_15_e.pdf

One can imagine the emergence of more domain-specific good practices
for data sharing although some of the domain-specific issues may be
generalisable back to an expanded set of open data principles.

Cheers... Steve
