[okfn-br] [OpenSpending] OpenSpending in Brazil (also the HackerBus)

[Gisele S. Craveiro]

Hi everybody,

Pedro, the link is still not working.

I also share the same opinion about an activity in order to hack
some data from municipalities. I believe that we should focus
in a local approach, in order to help the ordinay citizen understand
how her/his life is impacted.

I´d like to say that Edson in TCE-SP is facing great challenges
and doing an excellent job in order to make available financial data from
more than 600 municipalities from São Paulo state (except the capital).
Unfortunately they download/API section has some problems and he´ll
take a while in order to redesing it. By this moment the only and best
alternative is to use the CSV. It will be great to put all datasets (about 600
municip. multiplied by 4 years) in OpenSpending during the Brasilia meeting.

I´d like also to say that we, from University of São Paulo
are interested to participate, as we are also working with  all these
data. There is
very interesting information but, unfortunately, others are lacking
(even in these CSVs).
It will be very important to have an strategie in order to make
pression for them
(Ministério Público? Lei de Acesso à Informação?). I also have this expectation
for our meeting.

Cheers,

Gisele
