<p class="MsoNormal">A draft version of Oregon’s Open Data Standard and Technical Standards Manual are currently
<a href="https://data.oregon.gov/stories/s/xr2x-d2d7">available online in draft form</a>. The reason for this “soft launch” is to provide agencies time to offer questions or feedback to the Chief Data Office before finalization of these materials in January
and the Open Data Standard’s requirements take effect. While this is not a formalized public comment period, it is an opportunity for agencies to broach any logistical questions or concerns with the Chief Data Office that are either not addressed with our
current open data materials or to provide feedback for possible training requests or needs from the agencies.<o:p></o:p></p>
