sweemengand we have to scrape02:46
sweemengkaeru is creating a server02:46
sweemengyou can host it yourself first02:46
ApOgEEI see... so then, the data can be use by mobile apps and whatnot02:47
sweemenghttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmN4VC_DvFzBdFdNaDhGRFhVcW1iQWk1N0VzZnVJWEE&hl=en_US#gid=002:47

sweemengApOgEE, those are processed one02:49
sweemengApOgEE, didn't have a data list yet02:49
ApOgEEsweemeng: it is legal to republish the scraped data right?02:49
sweemengbecause it depends apparently kaeru have asked during oscc days02:49
sweemengit is public domain02:49
ApOgEEI'm afraid that IC list could be sensitive... 02:50
ApOgEEisn't it?02:50
sweemenghmm02:50
sweemengyeah02:50
sweemengpersonally identifying information is sensitive02:50
sweemengbecause of privacy02:50
ApOgEEthen, if we can scrape it even from public domain, and put it on the list... we may have some trouble02:51
sweemengyeah02:51
sweemengbut if it is stuff like company information, then the board member information is public02:52
sweemengjust saying02:52
ApOgEEIf it wouldn't cost any legal issue, I'm looking after scraping free mp3 download links... hahahaha...02:52

sweemengit is non partisan 03:00
sweemengand there is a part to get user to submit it03:01
ApOgEEeven it is non partisan, i still kept secret of some sensitive raw data on data monitoring i did, because some sensors faulty will cause people panic.... lol03:03
