[OpenSpending] Current, structured, detailed budget for a developing country?

Tue Sep 3 21:05:43 UTC 2013

Ah, no problem. The budgets are here (on the Tanzanian Ministry of Finance
site):
http://www.mof.go.tz/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=20&Itemid=205

This is my scraper of the development budget PDF (my first PDF scraper, so
it's not pretty):
https://github.com/markbrough/tz-budget

CSV data output (there are some mistakes because of the scraper):
https://raw.github.com/markbrough/tz-budget/master/data.csv

Ugandan budget is also available here (and see links on the side and
around) - on the pretty cool new Uganda budget site:
