The TIGER stuff was really a one-off thing for me. I stole the code to do the conversion!! But, I'll see what I can do to track down getting these converted as well. Thanks for chasing them down.

The taxpayers paid for it to be created, and unless we got a serious price break for agreeing not to share it, we probably need to share it. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-us
