Thanks very much.

Llast Tuesday we heard that at certain conferences—the GTEC conferences, or whatever—at present the federal bureaucrats are not allowed to use the words “open government”; they're only allowed to use the words “open data”.

Could you explain what you think they think the difference is, and why one would be allowed and the other would not?
