Met in Sebastopol...(CA, not Ukraine!)
to talk about something called
OpenGov
WTF?
Open government is the political doctrine which holds that the business of government and state administration should be opened at all levels to
effective public scrutiny and oversight.Wikipedia EN
No, really, WTF?
You should be able to know everything happens in the government of your country, so that you
can kick their butts if they do wrong
First step:OpenData
So when can data be considered “open”?
8 principles
Complete
All public data is made available. Public data is data that is not subject to valid privacy,
security or privilege limitations.
Primary
Data is as collected at the source, with the highest possible level of granularity, not in
aggregate or modified forms.
Timely
Data is made available as quickly as necessary to preserve the value of the data.
Accessible
Data is available to the widest range of users for the widest range of purposes.
Machine processable
Data is reasonably structured to allow automated processing.
Non-discriminatory
Data is available to anyone, with no requirement of registration.
Non-proprietary
Data is available in a format over which no entity has exclusive control.
License-free
Data is not subject to any copyright, patent, trademark or trade secret regulation.
Reasonable privacy, security and privilege restrictions may be allowed.
Aha, and the facts?
