[ddj] Visualising the 'incidents' in Australian migrant detention centres

[Andrew Duffy]

Hey Clare, awesome project... congrats to the TGM team. The ability to flag
incidents is a nice touch... helps spread the word and boost engagement, as
well as crowdsource the investigative side of things. Just on the technical
side... did TGM do the web development in-house or outsource it?
