Even though the underlying idea is not that innovative, this project meets a real need, promising to answer to several open questions. Since years we are talking of open data and they have been released by many public administrations, but it seems like nobody still has a clear picture of what to do, how to manage them, how to plan their release and how to link their availability with possible services innovation and business development. Also, we need a useful framework to assess costs and benefits, and a guidance to overcome hindrances.
I then subscribe to the project aims and plaud for its structure. I fully agree with Francisco Santarremigia's detailed comment, and I will not repeat the same things here. Only, let me say that tables 6 and 7 in D1.1 are really useful as a starting point.

Here, I find that dissemination and exploitation are reasonable and sufficiently detailed. Only, I find them, how can I say, a bit too traditional, conservative. I mean they look like just as those of every other European project, while in this case the stakeholders are many more, potentially every citizen, every software developer or firm, every subject interested in new business etc. Then I would have thought to something more involving than a repository on Github (an hackathon day in all the involved countries?) and capable of reaching a larger public.

We are still at the very first steps on the open data subject, then EC should keep to feed the theme, also building on the lessons learned with this project. For example, I would encourage some replication in different countries to integrate the available experiences.
