Dolt	works as POC requires scraper Richard is waiting for a bug fix from dolt and will merge his branch after that
Scrapers	Former user (Deleted) add “convert data to a known type or create a new type” to scraper instructions This is a good amount of work because all would need to be kept up to date Former user (Deleted)We should use github to store the DDL scripts and reference it in dolthub, should make a folder for them people would reference these → their columns would be kept up to date Richard Ji basic Python style guide for scrapers
What data to collect	We need a decision / definition of “what we really want” The decision from last meeting is something like Accept all data that is up and out publicly Tier and sort and prioritize data based on good or consistent formatting, but accept all legal public data. Omission is not a good start to our process if our goal is “a source of truth for police data.” Only surface PII Classification should not be a barrier—we only need to classify what is Former user (Deleted) draft a policy → publish
Business / professional things	Eddie working with Denice Ross on New Jersey data that’s not public. Someone needs to explain to Eddie what’s going on with New Jersey data → he can use that as more specific rationale for more investigation Eddie ensuring our taxes are paid.
