Yes, some of us from the South African community have been involved. The announcement from afrispatial.co.za is badly timed and wasn't expected, we have our own announcement lined up. A formal agreement is in the final stages. We haven't yet fully considered exactly what bits of the data we'll use. We'll consider when ripe. A blanket import is out of the question.
