I think the lesson for us in this is that those who are serious about 
linked data will use what is openly available.  They will not use 
library data that is behind walls, in web-unfriendly formats, or with 
questionable re-use policies.  If we want to be recognized in that 
world, with our data being used where it can be most effective, we need 
to stop dithering and make it happen.
