Suggested edits (there are so many, and some so substantive, I didn't
want to make them in the wiki without running them by people first):

style edits:
* 'including people from' -> 'including representatives from'
* 'access and re-use without restriction.' -> 'unrestricted access and re-use'
* 'access, re-use and re-distribution without restriction.' ->
'unrestricted access, re-use and re-distribution'
* 'simpler feedback' -> 'unimpeded feedback'
* 'but will also' -> 'but it will also'
* 'as well as many other possibilities we cannot predict in advance.'
-> 'and many other benefits that can't be predicted in advance.'

content changing edits:
* add links for Open Access Journals/Open Educational resources/Open
Data; at least to the relevant Wikipedia articles if nothing else.
* 'incredible rise in community-led development and innovative uses.'
-> 'incredible increase in innovative development, contribution, and
use by communities, corporations, and governments'
