51. wish list fo the next year
Open Government Data as a Right
More Schemas (Knowledge APIs) – keep it focused, let’s not try to boil the ocean
Open Data as a Platform, Not a Commodity
Massive Interconnection Between Open Data Sites
Open Corporate Data (for and by Corporates)
Standards (e.g. for catalog metadata) for Data Portals and Data Hubs
Open Data for Growth – making clear the the connection
Strong international norms for data inventories
Organizational identifiers – Dunn & Bradstreet should be replaced with open data
MiData – getting personal data out of corporates and government back into the hands of the people
whose data it is
