Dave, I like the idea of a scheduled panel discussion on the lines of
"How We Open Licensed Our Formerly Proprietary Data And You Can Too".
Hopefully Cameron and crew can help find speakers from a couple of
.au and .nz public agencies, and if possible a commercial service provider.

Chris, thanks for the vote of confidence in the Guide and I will try
