All,

This is a reminder that we will be having an online Sprint tomorrow
Saturday.

*Help visualise aid commitments for the Philippines*
Today we received a request from the gov agency behind the aid tracking
platform in the Philippines, FAiTH [1]. They have asked if the OpenSpending
community can help out with a visualisation of the data of the aid
commitments for the Yolanda emergency, which they are collecting [2].

You can take part by joining the sprint tomorrow or start working with the
data right away!

You should also take a look at this great project from Mark, which is based
on IATI data for the Philippines [3].

*When:* Saturday, November 23, from 14CET, 8EDT to 20CET, 14EDT - your time
zone<http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=OpenSpending+Website+Sprint&iso=20131120T07&p1=263&ah=6>.
Let us know when you wish to join in this
Doodle<http://doodle.com/eqqru66kbwqf9wdv>
.

*Where*: Join via IRC channel <https://webchat.freenode.net/> on
freenode #openspending or Skype (you can ping me at SkypeID: anpehej).

I hope to see many of you tomorrow!

Best,
Anders
