When will we see the first data.xyz.com?

"http://data.xyz.com is the home of our open linked data"

                   Say the CIO of Corporation XYZ

When will we see such an announce from a corporation?

I really liked the tweet today from Milton Keynes, UK (@mdaquin) pointing me to data.open.ac.uk, that is the home of open linked data from The Open University.

I would love to see an announcement from a corporation with high ambitions on corporate transparency and understanding of the value of sharing of pre-competitive data.  With a CIO with good insights on open data and linked data principles. A corporation that clearly state the applied open license (such as PDDL, ODC-by or CC0), and also have earned a 5 star ranking (see Linked Data star scheme by example)

Or, does this already exist? Let me know if you know of something similar in an enterprise context.
