Hi all

Yes disagreeing w/ the "sales pitches" won't make them go away or
doesn't mean we can do other sessions.

And yes, there's a difference between Open Data and Information Transparency.

Still, there is so much to do on both ends.

It would be great really if these initiatives moved forward, faster,
better and we could be discussing things such as Open Contracting and
so reusable data.

So why it isn't?

I'm sure you'll find a variety of answers to the questions you posed
on types of data.

But how about the purpose of Open Data or Transparency, itself.

Why is data so vital like meeting recordings not easily accessible,
processed, transcribed, reused and linked to budget data?

Who is disagreeing that this data be accessible this way? Why?

So again, an investigation is very worthy and all but I'd really like
to see us go beyond that. As I said "concrete steps an example of open
data use cases and guidance to the community"

If this session manages to answer those questions and show
concreteness, I'd move forward with it.

Best,

Renata
