Good questions. I don't know who is working with OpenMedia on this one.

I would be interested to know who wide the dbase is -- is it regional (covers a specific set of municipalities) or an attempt at something at the national level (for instance with Federation of Cdn Munic)?

This was something that TC had identified in our conference call on municipal broadband. I think it will be a useful tool. Is anyone on this list working with OpenMedia already on this?
