Until recently, we only hosted data created by the City. We've published new guidance that opens the door to third-party data — when a city division uses that data for decisions or services, and the public would benefit from access.

Shoutout to Ilya Kreynin — the energizer bunny.
He's somehow doing the work of several people at once : fielding requests, coordinating with City divisions to get data ready for publishing, moderating our monthly open data jam sessions much more.
We're lucky to have him. 💙
