[open-government] Examples of Open Data against conflicts of interests?

Fri Dec 23 12:13:16 UTC 2011

Dear all,

The site runs on the following address: ahalo.hu
Since we have some server merging work going on right now, you won't be
able to reach the site currently, but please come back to it next week or
the beginning of January!

I'll immediately let you all know when the database is ready.

Bests,
Julia
