Fech 1.1 Released by Derek Willis
From the post:
We’ve released an updated version of Fech, our Ruby gem for parsing Federal Election Commission electronic filings. This update provides some performance improvements when parsing large filings (such as those from the presidential campaign) and several small fixes for parsing miscellaneous reports and other issues.
