Setting up your own data catalog website

Hi!

I recently released the source code for the opengov.se data catalog
website (which is an unofficial catalog of public sector information
in Sweden). If your government currently doesn't provide information
about public data sets you can now start your own catalog to increase
transparency and enable re-use of public sector information.

The application will be soon be used to power an open data initiative
in Finland and I hope that more people will be interested in creating
a catalog for their own country.

Source code is available here: http://code.google.com/p/opengov-catalog/
opengov.se is available here: http://www.opengov.se/
