Yes though built in a very short time frame (2 weeks) all the code
will be GPL, and we are going to be looking into creating more tools
like this that can be repurposed for different datasets. Of course,
the dream is to make open source (data visualisation) toolkits that
can be used in lots of different countries very easily. If you're
interested in the code for this one pop us a line on energy at okfn.org.
Info will be added to the site as soon as our team has caught up with
some sleep. ;-)
