I've shared a document with you:

Ottawa OpenData and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

Ottawa City organised a hack fest around open data. You've probably seen some of my posts as I scrabbled to at least get them to look at alternatives to Google. The ability to display road names in both languages turned out to be something that was commented favourably on. It was done using an unreleased version of Maperitive but there should be an easier way. The ability to select what is displayed is glossed over but some improvement in ease of use might be useful.

Anyway Sam thought others might be interested and have some ideas.
