Data cathedrals and data bazaars?

Tracey P. Lauriault
That is a pretty good question!  I would go for the bazaar if there was a way to aggregate the government releases from the local into one place.  Just like libraries develop the means to interoperate their catalogues so that we can search in multiples places in one go.  It would also mean the data would be well documented at the source but shared with the whole via an interoperable aggregator / portal that facilitates 1 stop shopping and eases discover ability.  That way we reach many more people, the not particularly web savvy who however may be great data analysts and/or users.
 
Thoughts?
