It'd be good if you could.  Just for the record, I don't have any particular
restriction on the format of files which I incorporate, as long as it's
documented or obvious enough that I can work it out.  The programming 
language I've written most of the site in is particularly good at importing
data from wide and diverse sources;  there's no reason why I couldn't write
a Cu-Sonde import module.

If a non-BoM site wants to provide regular or semi-regular trace data,
I'll be happy to talk to them to work out the logistics of publishing
it.  

Once the data is made available in an agreed format, the rest of it
is pretty simple (as Daryl Mackay found out, when the web site was
running a day and a half after he sent word of the availability of BoM's
data :-)
