API access to closed/proprietary data is not ‘open data’. (And if that’s the widely-accepted definition, do we need a new term…‘free data’?)
@brunoscheele It would be data (and the tools for manipulating that data) that you can own.

@aral You'd need some kind of public version control for that data as well. Manually retrieving updates would severely hamper adoption. -
@aral That's why I like the API approach. It gives you the most recent stuff from the source. A data download alongside it would be good.
