[CF-Devel] Followup on Greyshield maps

[Michael Toennies]

Ah, very fine Rick!
Nice idea to email them.
(why i had not this idea? :)

Please let you email the greyshield maps and mail me a copy.

I will and perhaps AV will update them and i will them then
in my server for further testing.

We don't need all of the old maps, the greyshied only will be ok.
I will think about how i chain them to the current map set.

      Can anyone answer Christian's first question?
     
     
Yes, Mark wrotes about the goldcity maps a few mails before in the list,
that the goldcity are an unfinished part of the thomas maps. He added a list
of files
of them.
