Mon Aug 26 13:03:40 UTC 2013

Didn't realized r-openspending actually provides some functions for casting
openspending data into a data.frame.
It works great!

Here's an use case: merging two OpenSpending datasets to compare income
budgets

> Really awsome Michael, can't wait to test it.

> Does it download openspending data as data.frame R object?
> This is one of best objects for dealing with data that R can provide.
