Hi Jonathan - thank you for adding me to the list. I haven't had a 
chance to put together a basic spec document yet, but hope to tackle it 
tomorrow/this weekend. (Had a piece get published today 
<http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/has-canada-entered-a-bush-like-vortex/article1404311/> 
that sidetracked me).

Will definitely get it ready.

I think I sent you an invite to the wiki at social text that has the 
data sets I've been able to find so far.

Does it work for you? Can you access it?

cheers,
dave
