What might an open source db look like? It should be publicly readable and forkable at any time, but write access still would be restricted to maintainers. Honestly being able to store your data in git (if it's simple enough) would be a godsend, but I don't see any actual concrete alternatives. Hosting a DB isn't viable. Another commenter mentioned Wikipedia which is a great model. Importantly, they have both i) automated data-dumps which can be downloaded at any time. ii) an open source platform, which is kind of outside of the scope of the point of just open-source data. One could imagine a "WikiCalories" site which has all the info that MyFitnessPal did.
