[Open-data-census] open data census spain

[Christian Villum]

Hi Maria,

1) Fantastic! Thanks for all your work on this.

2) We are making a lot of improvements on the backend of the site right
now, so updates do not show immediately on the page. However, I've checked
and your submissions has been registered and will be visible very soon (as
with any other prior submissions that may not appear yet).

3) I think the idea of a regional Census is a good one! I am cc'ing this
email to the Census Editor list to ask everyone: Would a regional census be
of good use in more countries than Spain?

Thanks, Spanish Census team!

-Christian
