“So, why release data?”

• “The coolest thing to do with your data will be thought of by someone else.”

• Rufus Pollack (Open Knowledge Foundation, 2007)

“So, why release data?”

• “Absolutely, couldn’t agree more. The point is not so much whether this statement might be true or not, so much as what it does to your thinking and planning if you decide to take it as an article of faith.”

• Paul Walk (UKOLN, 2007)
