Hi Stefan,
This is really great news - thanks a lot!
Another thing, which would be great to tweak, is the fact that the Get the
Raw Data<http://farmsubsidy.openspending.org/login/?next=/getthedata/download>
[Link] only
points to the registration page. Instead it would be great to point
directly to http://data.farmsubsidy.org/:
Github ticket here:
https://github.com/openspending/Farm-Subsidy/issues/10
Is this correction to be made in the farmsubsidy CMS?
Best,
Anders
