Hi All!

DataMeet was invited to a Pre Budget Consultation with the Finance Minister
and gave some suggestions about opening data.

The summary of the meeting and our recommendations are up on the blog here:

I hope we can do some followup with a more detailed note so any more
suggestions please reply to this thread.
