Corey-
I'm a reporter at the Times (former Django programmer at the Post). Can you please either give me read only access to the Calloway database for a day or do a SQL dump of a few tables? I've been trying to get this for three months. I need:

All super-tagging/calais tables
Articles
Authors/reporters (including email addresses)

The purpose is that I have opencalais'd wikileaks and I intend to generate a list of Washington Times article headlines and URLs where the article mentions people in wikileaks, and display them for reporters who have written about those people.

Incidentally, looks like you've got all the campaign finance stuff you could need from the AP, but I have a Django system that hits up the FEC web site every 15 minutes and turns all new campaign finance reports into django objects. Happy to share access if it would ever be helpful somehow.

Thanks,
Luke
