FYI. Progress! Note that they mention "machine-readable formats like
CSV, XML, and JSON". Now, how can we get these organizations to provide
that information in Turtle, or provide mappings from those formats to
RDF so that the semantics will be clear and information will be easier
to link with other information?
On a related note, there will be a workshop on "RDF as a Universal
Healthcare Exchange Language" at the upcoming SemTech conference in San
Francisco:

We're making a lot more data open to the public
The White House Thursday, May 9, 2013
Hi, all --
Earlier today, President Obama signed an Executive Order directing his
administration to take historic steps to make government-held data more
accessible to the public and to entrepreneurs and others as fuel for
innovation and economic growth.
*Here's what you need to know:*
* The Executive Order declares that information is a valuable resource
and strategic asset for the nation.
* Newly generated government data will be required to be made
available in open, machine-readable format by default -- enhancing
their accessibility and usefulness, and ensuring privacy and security.
* These executive actions will allow entrepreneurs and companies to
take advantage of this information -- fueling economic growth in
communities across the Nation.
*Watch this short video and find out more about today's announcement:

Thank you again for your continued support, and we look forward to
