Tue Apr 8 02:03:18 UTC 2014

Thanks Philippe for the details you have shared below. Really appreciate
the work you and your team is doing in consolidating the bar codes.

I will be very happy to help you in whichever way possible. So please let
me know If I can do anything for you, i wish i could become a product owner
bur not sure if i have right skills or not :) !!!

Also i am planning to setup an e-comm store for myself in near future and
utilize the open data as the basis for it.

Regards,
Puneet
