Dear all
Thanks for all your comments and input into this. I can understand why
those working closely within the open knowledge sector might feel there
isn't a need for information about why this matters, but the audience we're
aiming this at are people working in smaller organisations and societi

issues once the decision to release content has been made. Fabian rightly
points out that lots of orgs are sympathetic to the desire to release

Open Knowledge, Open Data Institute, Creative Commons have lots of this

This is good too: https://exposingtheinvisible.org/guides/decoding-data/
Who do you see as the audience for this guide you're proposing?
