Some work on the backend

I've been spending the last few weeks working on the backend of the system. The backend consists of reading meeting directories, geocoding the addresses and storing them in a database. I'm using free Google tools for most of this and the free versions have limitations that I have to work around. I'm done with most of this and now I can build the database map from scratch in about 1 minute (before it took multiple days to do it from scratch as I hit the daily geocoding limit).

Now with this plumbing almost behind me I plan to significantly enhance the look and functionality of the page. I'm learning while I go so it may take a bit but I'm excited to get started.
