If only it were that easy. Only a small amount of government data is in a database, if even electronic at all. A lot of it is on paper, in Microsoft word, in emails, in a voicemail, etc.
Nobody is going to write a DB schema or call a DBA before taking notes in a notebook… but that’s government data too.

True, but in this case we are talking about providing DB dumps to citizens.
That is not how I interpreted “all non-classified, non-sensitive public data”
true. i scope of grand parent comment. i was still thinking about TFA when i commented.
