My communication recent with the woodland trust, regarding open data:
It would be good if you could do more on data openness - that is more
permissive permissions to use data on your web site. Also it would be good to
be able to upload creative commons licensed photos to your visitwoods pages, as
there are many good photos on flickr like that.

Your comments about data and creative commons prompted an interesting
discussion in our team. While we would like to do more about data
openness, our data is licensed from a huge number of partners, so we
are unable at present to make it more open. We would like to assure
you that your comments have been taken seriously, and have been fed
into our ongoing project development.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I look forward to any future
attempts that can be made on your part to adopt open data.
You might be interested in something I did with Kent Council Council
recently. They released a list and rough location of green spaces in
the Medway area. I have created a web 2.0 website to collect user
annotations and improved position data.

food for thought.
