In what format would you like the data?

The data for the hack is flowing in now (only 1 day after the
deadline ;-) ) and I am spending much of this week converting the data
in to a format that is easer to use in the hack. Most of the data is
coming in in spreadsheets and all the original files (excluding a few
where we need to remove personal information) will be made available.
I aim to have most of the data available as CSV files and MySQL
scripts where appropriate.

Are there any other formats you would like the data in? An idea of the
data available is being posted at http://www.culturecode.co.uk/blog .

Also several cultural organisations are giving us access to there
Google Analytics accounts for the hack. If you have and ideas for this
or would like a custom report running then please speak up.
