Dan, this is some really cool stuff.
I’ll be interested to see how many citizen submissions this new transparency policy will bring. By publishing 80% of the data via RSS feeds, its possible that people will suffer from information overload. This is especially true if there is no “smart” information pushing the most important information to the forefront.
The other problem is publicizing the fact that this information is now available. If it does become popular, are there mechanisms in place to receive requests, and more importantly act on them.
Regardless, it is definitely a step in the right direction. I think Toronto, from a city planning perspective, could really use something like this.
