Linux Solutions for Zip Codes and Congressional Districts?

davidmcn asks: "There is an overabundance of solutions available for the Microsoft brand of operating systems which allow the mapping of zip-codes to congressional districts. However, I work for a small consulting firm that works primarily with Linux/Apache/PHP/MySQL, and would like to find a way to take address information, and create mailings based on Congressional Mappings. Does anyone know of a solution that is available for a linux enviroment? Even something as simple as a list of Congressional Districts and all zip codes underneath them would suffice."

"take address information, and create mailings"

You won't find much in the way of open source software designed to enable you to create privacy invasive databases or spam your special interest group's message.

You just opened up a vipers nest as far as that question is concerned here on slashdot. Privacy invasion and spam are extreme hot button issues here.

You want to do them both. Go spend the money with microsoft. They love people like you.
