Ok, I got a few good responses, and I'm going to forward them now. Basic message: data exists for us to use, there are areas in dispute, and these folks are willing to help us more, if needed.
So, if anyone starts to work on this, please update the wiki and get in touch with me and I can make connections to holders of this geodata. Thanks!

We’d also need to check who’s getting Kordofan as there’s an argument there. -- Andrew _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
