Fascinating post. Been looking at MongoDB for a (partial) backend for
OpenlyLocal among other things. Are you ar the event in Berlin on Friday? Be
good to talk in details re this.

One, slightly related question: downloaded the CSV for UK government
spending > £25,000 but there didn't seem to be any headings on the file. AM
I missing something?

Kind regards
Chris
