@jpmckinney thx - very useful.

@trobbins any thoughts here. What would be a first set of data to get in?

[todrobbins]

@rgrp well either the Federal Register API (https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies) or the GSA API (http://www.usa.gov/About/developer-resources/federal-agency-directory/index.shtml) will do. I'll try and pair down the GSA json this week since the Federal Register json mostly contains links to the article feed there.

@trobbins has this going - would love to get this in. We're also working on a finalized CSV schema here in #29

@trobbins we now have a slightly improved schema. Would love to get the US data improved. cf #46
