Yes, that would be good. I just had a chance to look through the data
and the thing I was most hoping to do with it would be a bit complicated.
I would like to get a list of submitter patches totals vs the total

eyeball.
Do you think you could put something like that together?

I would be happy with a page that is simply a json dump of the
publicly-viewable fields in each table. Then I can do whatever I want
with the data.
