European Open Data Inventory

The Open Knowledge Foundation has launched the European Open Data Inventory.  From Jonathan Gray's description on the OKF blog yesterday:

We’re currently working on a European Open Data Inventory:

This is an inventory of EU-relevant datasets that is being compiled by EU Transparency, the NGO that made farmsubsidy.org and theOpen Knowledge Foundation. It includes data that is already available, as well as data that we know exists but is not published - from budget data and environmental information to postcodes and place names.

This will be launched at the First European Open Data Summit, which will take place 5-7th May 2009 in Brussels.

For more information on contributing to the European Open Data Inventory, see [here]...
