This started as a project for just my city, as there's a ton of work that goes into information collection. I also want to be more involved in the area, have giveaways events etc, so something bigger would be too much for me to manage and I think, dilute the overall project.<p>As for open source or API, I've had some thoughts of selling the source to some other areas, but I don't want it to be so diluted that a dozen different hobbyists can attempt to mash together something for their own city using the script. Is that just me being selfish? I'd love to hear more.<p>It isn't using an API, the data is collected by me, and added manually. I've developed a pretty good admin panel behind the scenes with some other great features.<p>I think its important to note, that I'm not the main developer on this project. It has been my project for a long time, I've done all of the design, concepts, etc. But I've worked with a very skilled coder to implement everything.
