Re: [datameet] Shapefiles for "complete" India

Hi, 

This is just to add one more source for the Complete Boundary including 
Disputed areas and the whole world, 

ESRI ADMIN 2012 now includes the disputed areas inlcuding Aksai Chi and 
Azad Kashmir and Northern areas  separately rather than being shown as part 
of the Other countries

it is available here

Hi, 
I felt that the name was a kind of a pseudonym.
Let us see if he responds.

Those interested in mapping the different types of boundaries can maybe
help review how good these tagging guidelines on openstreetmap are:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/India:Boundaries

This will really help if an and when such data starts being imported into
the project.
