Great work on the site!

I've booted a gdoc where we can work on copy etc.

We can work on the copy there and start listing more datasets to
include. (I guess we should add them to http://africaopendata.org/ at
the same time!).

Also we can prepare an announce post for http://za.okfn.org/ and
elsewhere - we can reuse quite a bit of your intro email :-) (I think
this is a great project for OKFN South Africa Local Group to be
involved so no problem blogging and supporting it!)

Re legal Arthur has made a good suggestion re Andrew Rens. If you need
any help getting in contact let me know!
