Hi Open Knowledge BE, OSM BE and CC BE,
A couple of us have been giving feedback to the federal government
regarding their open data strategy. Today, the strategy has been
approved by the ministerial council:
http://www.openknowledge.be/2015/07/24/green-light-for-the-belgian-federal-open-data-strategy/
The strategy contains a lot of our recommendations. We thus can only
look forward to a bright future of open data in Belgium. The strategy
provides extremely interesting points for e.g., the OSM community: all
data should be able to be imported in Open Street Map, or the open
transport working group (SNCB is part of the strategy). And last but not
least, the standard license they aim at is CC0.
For the tweeps out here:

Kind regards,
Pieter
