# `version` is the RELEASE ID, not the schema version. The schema version lives
# in DATASET_VERSION (dataset/schema.py) and is recorded inside each release
# manifest; a citation needs to name the bytes, and only the release id does.

# Release 2026-07-30 is built and verified (35,097,678 rows across
# fund_holdings and insider_transactions, plus coverage; 63 partitions;
# 873,967,532 bytes; verify_release CLEAN). It has NOT been uploaded anywhere
# yet, so there is no DOI and no `repository-artifact` URL. Add one when it is
# published; a citation to a release nobody can fetch is not much of a citation.

title: "Open US Government Disclosure Dataset: congressional trades, SEC insider Form 4, and 13F holdings with a point-in-time publication clock"
abstract: >-
  A free, open dataset of US government financial-disclosure data: House and
  Senate congressional Periodic Transaction Reports, SEC insider Form 4
  transactions, and SEC 13F-HR institutional holdings. Every row carries
  published_at, the instant the fact became publicly available, and
  clock_precision recording how that instant was established. For House
  filings the clock is the publishing server's own HTTP Last-Modified header,
  giving second-resolution first-party publication timestamps on 41,380 of
  41,454 clerk index rows (99.8%) back to 2008, which makes the corpus
  point-in-time correct: filtering published_at <= T yields what a researcher
  could have known at T. Coverage denominators, including where coverage is
  poor, are published alongside the data.

# NOT CC0. This file declared `CC0-1.0` until 2026-07-30, which is precisely the
# misstatement LICENSE-DATA exists to prevent: a CC0 dedication is an act by a
# rights HOLDER, and under Feist v. Rural Telephone we hold no copyright in the
# disclosure facts. Claiming to waive rights we never had implies a publisher who
# declines to waive could lock the same facts up, which is backwards. See
# LICENSE-DATA, which is a public-domain STATEMENT for the facts plus a narrowly
# scoped CC0 waiver over the thin layer we did author.
