Whoa, nice work, Reham!

Any chance you could get the parking ticket database up on BuzzData? I know a few hackers with an idea for a mobile app based on it ...

What's the status of the below (ie: are these all publicly available yet?):=

*Freedom of Information Requests Summary
*Lobbyist Registry
*Parking Tickets
*Open311 API ( http://www.toronto.ca/311/open311.htm )

They are all kick-ass data sources to put out ...

Hey, this looks good. Looks like the revocation clauses are gone, so the
data might be usable in projects like OpenStreetMap. Would have been
nice if the licence URL we have to quote was a bit more robust and
memorable, but we chide because we love.
 
cheers,
Stewart

Yes Momoko.....How are you?

We've published all the datasets below in the last week or so. Check them out on www.toronto.ca/open.

I'll try and push the parking tickets data on Buzzdata...which one would you like to view? I have 2008, 2009 and 2010...
