Hennepin too.  The MetroGIS Policy Board passed a recommendation for all of the 7 counties to do so.  Hennepin and Ramsey were the first to vote.

Give them a little time and I expect to see clear license terms and convenient download.  When we are done with the MN Geospatial commons, much of the data will hopefully be there with at least one open data format.

I give MetroGIS and the counties a lot of credit for reevaluating their policies and business models and changing.
