Conclusions★ Open government data is necessary for sustainable projects.★ Best projects increase participation in gov't rather than producing skepticism and distrust in political processes. ★ We have information, need context. Avoid info divergence.★ Undifferentiated citizen inputs overwhelm politicians. (Pick your battles.)★ Bridge opposing echo chambers.★ The issue of verifying identities.★ Seeking answerability versus accountability (sanctions).★ Shift from issues to processes.★ Sometimes legal solutions are easier and more effective than technical solutions.
