Hi all, Christopher found two promising links: AU: https://www.finder.com.au/open-banking GB (UK): https://www.openbanking.org.uk/
I am wondering if the one or other of you could dig in them and cooperate with aqbanking.de to implement modules for them.

How does the team feel about expanding to the UK market? Unfortunately I really cannot do C and I am comfortable in scheme only. If aqbanking could be extendable with guile I'll get in!
