Wishes for data:
- Raw data (not aggregated), fast published and updated
- Standard formats (xml, json, csv, etc.)
- Comparable from country to country and
not in different structures and content from country to country. - Areas of interest for the public, not just marketing
of EU - Not EU trying to do the interactive graphics – leave that to news medias and non-profits
