So this is great news for all of us.

The more data for people to play with the better. I can spot some neat mashups 
between BBC and Guardian data.

Subject: [backstage] Open Platform from the Guardian to make online content 
available free

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/mar/10/guardian-open-platform

key quote hidden towards the end

"The Guardian is positioning its Open Platform as a commercial venture, 
requiring partners to carry its advertising as part of its terms and 
conditions, while BBC Backstage states clearly that its proposition is for 
individual developers designers and not for "big corporates"."

opening quote about free at the beginning...

"The Guardian today launched Open Platform, a service that will allow partners 
to reuse guardian.co.uk content and data for free and weave it "into the fabric 
of the internet"."
