Hi All

I was wondering if  someone on this list would be available to
contribute some time to an open source project looking at mapping
census indicators. With the application - we're hoping to help
journalists better understand census data through the use of simple
choropleths. An early demo of what we're trying to achieve can be
found here (http://census.hackshackers.co.za - you'll need a modern,
non IE browser to play around with it). You'll notice that the maps
look dog ugly and I'm looking to chat with someone who has experience
making maps useable who can provide some pointers and possibly even
roll-up their sleeves.

Thanks
Adi
