Awesome
Put all docs of the DOF and DBM into Scribd.
Crowdsource the work, too, to save money. I’m sure all the students who volunteered in Ondoy relief efforts will work on this, too.

Cool

Awesome

Put it as a spreadsheet for easy third-party analysis. After the Mendoza incident, I’m pretty sure a lot of IT folks will come up with ways to slice and dice the data.
