Your app '''must''' use and be based around data from the [http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset Government of Canada Open Data] web site preferably in XML or JSON format. Other formats may be considered but must first be approved by your instructor. Each student will choose a different dataset for their app. The following table will track student choices which will be assigned on a first-come first-served bases. You may edit the table yourself or if you don't have a wiki account: send me an email and I'll do it for you. Your assignments '''must be submitted via GitHub''', otherwise they will not be marked. That means you'll need a GitHub account and you'll need to enter it below or tell me what it is so I can give you access to your private repository.
