I'm sure there's a sociologist going wild somewhere over 'FixMyStreet'
vs. 'FixYourStreet'.

Hi Feargal,
We've clocked this too!
It's not the same codebase, and perhaps considerably more important it
currently only covers one council, making it much more analagous to
LoveCleanLewisham, which launched covering just one area too.
This, incidentally, is the main new-thing I'm working on.
Complete lack of email destinations to send reports to, though - and
by design, because at least one council has made it extremely clear
that such reports are *not welcome at all*. Mostly they're mucking
about with things like this in anticipation of the DoE handing down a
'thou shalt fixthystreet' edict at some point before 2015, because
building it was in the new coalition's programme for government.
On the basis that left to its own devices our government would in fact
build not fixmystreet, but 34 copies of this abomination (turns out I
was right), am currently working on a FMS install that recasts
councils as council *wards* and bugs the local councillors instead,
FMS-Canada-style.
Needed (and any help welcome):
1. As many more of these scrapers as possible to fill in the gaps in
the TODO list:
http://scraperwiki.com/scrapers/ie_councillors_all/
2. Am currently walking through the most recent secondary legislation
on electoral boundaries to assign all ~3400 electoral divisions to the
right 'parent' constituency/council constituency/Euro objects in mapit.
Sooner we can get 1) sorted, the sooner I can push this thing out of
the door. Aiming for late-Sept.
