Hi James, The 16 tiles of the 040p area is now available.
http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=3b30da6df5072902ab1eab3e9fa335ca5db936ffcb4bd73c Please update the google docs chart of your progress, so we all know whats up. I see that's where Richard did a little uploading in the area, so it would be best to coordinate with him on what tiles your working on, so no toe stepping on :) On Wed, Oct 21, 2009 at 5:23 AM, James A.
