Currently we're planing on making many more changes, those changes will affect the way we use the service. But before making any change, we'll love to hear any new feature you've in mind, currently we're planing on implementing the following features:

- History (make rates from previous days accesible)
- Faster responses (increase the service's response time)
- Include new juicy API conserning employee's compensations.

This is a simple service that provides the current currency exchange rate for
the Dominican Republic. To do so, we parse the web pages of all the major banks
of the Dominican Republic, those pages are updated on a daily basis by every
bank.

Harmonic mean.
