Friends, I recently joined the datameet group and following emails.
I am glad that you are considering exploring the Govt initiatives. As an officer in Government I will be happy to get the information required by the group to help you understand and contribute. I have some initial questions to work on in the previous mail. If there are anymore things I can help on I will gladly try. Apart from release of data sets we can try to build tools that enable opening up data at department and office levels. For example how a district collector can open up his office data and make it accessible. What tools he will need. Would you be happy to analyse data sets on free houses to poor, social benefits data, NREGA works data....the list is endless. Opengov can work only if we all work together.
