Yeah, I don't want to use anything that is likely to carry nefarious material, if possible. I'd like something professional, geared toward scientific data, preferably moderated. The normal option is just to put it on one of your own websites and then be sure to maintain that website/data until you're sure you no longer need it... then hopefully someone like archive.org may keep a copy of it. It just seems to me like this would be something the national institutes or labs would already provide. -- glen e. p. ropella, 971-222-9095, http://agent-based-modeling.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
