I think pull (Atom/RSS) and push (pubsubhubbub, AtomPub) are both
relevant. Enabling pull is typically easier for most publishers to
manage, and a great place for government efforts to start (because of
its simplicity).

Yes, guidance on how to syndicate access to new/updated datasets as
they become available is very important. But I think syndicated access
to bits of information for people "aka news" is also important.
Creating syndicated feeds for "news" feeds is a good way to understand
why syndicated access to data is important, and how to do it.
