+The situation in Luxembourg
No open data portal
Data available but licenses are too restrictive Geoportail.lu
Data available but difficult to exploit Chd.lu
Data available but almost impossible to exploit Yearly budget Wickrange-Livange investigation

+That’s why we started depuwatch.lu
Access easily the voting records of members of parliaments
Export the data as XML (and json if you are courageous)
Make available the database dump on simple request

+YES IT WAS HARD!

+What did we do?
Scrape automatically ~35.000 individual votes Thanks to ScraperWiki.com this was less painless
Link votes to MPs And correct manually around 500 records
Categorize motions and laws into subject areas
Gather more details about MPs
Calculate attendance scores for them
Hit the chd.lu server very hard We rescraped the entire thing like 8 or 9 times
