## Changelog: New Business Licenses Scraper

### 0.2

- Business names with a city or province word (e.g. '... Canada', '... Chicago') or a company form after an initial are no longer mistaken for a person's name.
- No address or phone when the legal name is a person's name, even under a business trade name; first name plus initial treated as a person; only the needed columns are read, so runs are faster.
- Address and phone only for records that are clearly businesses; stricter person-name check (incl. family trusts and 'A / B' names); emails and phones removed from every text field; only-new mode reads 90 days (newest accounts in Los Angeles, Denver and Baton Rouge) so late-published licences arrive; run-time cap for slow portals.

### 0.1

- First release: 11 cities (Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Denver, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Norfolk, Edmonton, Calgary), normalised categories, only-new mode, privacy rules for sole proprietors and home-based businesses.
