That's the whole idea behind the opinion that it's the best avenue for 
getting public information to the citenzry.  It's probably the only way 
the information will ever get published in many cases, especially with 
smaller municipalities with little or no budget for web development and 
information publishing.  Basically the idea is that you can get something 
for free by letting anyone volunteer to do the work for you.  Sometimes it 
works and sometimes it fails miserably.
