What is Open Data?

“A piece of content or data is open if you are free to use, reuse, and redistribute it — subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and share-alike.”

The above is how Open Knowledge Foundation defines open data. With only hours to go for first ever open data day celebration in Nepal i would like to share this article which talks about what open data means and what it doesn't.
