Hello, recently our government published a new database with geodata (RÚIAN), by our laws this database is in PD.
The database contains (among other things) accurate administrative boundaries in GML. The old import of Czech adm. boundaries, that was performed a couple of years ago, was done by tracing bitmaps from WMS (not really accurate). We've discussed their update in local talk-cz, and started with it under account [1]. We did not feel the need to discuss this action internationally, because we were not introducing any "new" data, just updating old one. During the update it turned out that the old data contain far more inaccuracies than originally anticipated. This resulted in a large amount of changes and pnorman asked me to hold off, until I confirm with sysadmins that this is ok. So here I am ;-) I'm not really sure how much more data we will uploading, but if we end up updating really every boundary in Czech Rep., then we're more than half way there.
