What we want to do
(put your ideas here)
 * A set of scripts to automatically covert public timetables (buses, trams etc) available only as HTML pages to a common database, so that anyone could use it.
 * A map of places that Warsaw City would like to rent to NGOs and similar organizations
 * Application that utilizes API of OtwarteZabytki.pl
 * make an News Application that tells a visual story on a global topic such as health, children’s welfare or inequality around the world. News Application can also crowdsource data or be a game. A good goal for the day is to produce 560×400 pixel application that can be embedded into any web page. Using data from the World Bank, Fund for Peace and Foreign Policy, International aid funding data or UN Habitat Open Data Catalog or some other source
