publishing our OpenCollective ledger (?)

Related to tracking project finances with hledger and eating our own dogfood: 

At https://opencollective.com/hledger/transactions, anyone can see all transactions from individuals and organisations, or download CSV giving the full details. It looks like this:

I'd like to publish it as hledger data on hledger.org. This will make it more browsable and more likely to be explored.

It has always been public data, that is the reason we use OpenCollective. So this wouldn't be a problem for anyone, I hope ?

This is done. I went back and forth on aggregating donors in some of the reports, but in the end I just made all the detail visible. Reports on the hledger opencollective will be kept updated at
