[open-government] Contribute to the Open Data Census

[Laura James]

Ole,

We have a ticket open for this:
https://github.com/okfn/opendatacensus/issues/172  If we remove the
orange/amber, do we still have an issue with the red and green?  would be
good to have the views of more colour blind viewers...

Best regards,

Laura
