Comments on use case "open spending data"

Hi Davide ... more good work on the open spending data use case<http://w3c.github.io/csvw/use-cases-and-requirements/#UC-OpenSpendingData> (thanks!).

Editorial comments:

Paragraph 1; typo - "speding" should be "spending"

Bullet 1; recommend replacing text

It would be interesting to be able to specify that in all currently listed datasets under that URL, as well as any added in the future, from 2007 onwards give amounts in EUR.

... with ...

Given that Slovenia joined the Eurozone in 2007, the implying currency is problematic: how do we know if a given table expresses currency amounts in "tolar" or "Euro"? Given that the currency will be uniform for a specific table, the currency metadata may be indicated once for the entire table.

Wikipedia<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slovenian_tolar> says the currency of Slovenia before Euro was the "tolar" - do I trust this as authoritative? :-)

In the green "Note"; typo - "OpenSpeding" should be "OpenSpending"

Thanks, Jeremy
