@NovickJE What partners do we have so far? If we do have partners then do we do logos with links? We'll need to contact each for logos. I can help with that if you have a list.

Scott,

We don't have any "data repository" partners yet. Can you help think of good partners? Imagine when GeoBoosters start collecting data, and wanting to share results/data. Where are logical outlets for that? (OSM? MapStory?, etc...)

Once we have a good list, we can engage.

Here are my initial thoughts for where people can save their data. It's not really partners though. If someone has data that isn't too massive, they can upload it to GitHub. Otherwise they can use something like Dropbox perhaps, but we should really leave it up to them to figure out.

Map Data: OpenStreetMap - http://openstreetmap.org & MapStory - http://mapstory.org Software Code and data: GitHub - http://github.com 3D Print Files: Thingiverse http://www.thingiverse.com/

For these outlets, we don't have to ask permission to point people their way. They each have good documentation for what to use their services for and they all have free options for people to share public data.

Scott,

I agree - this is a good start.

Thea, FYI...

I 100% agree.

Longer term there is potential for a partnership with DataKind. I know the guys over there and am happy to make intros. They specialize in helping civil society and open knowledge projects access and make use of open data.
