Update: I have managed to connect [1] to [3] directly. So, now, when you enter your information in the spreadsheet, the PDL Users map gets updated automatically. Additionally, there is a sidebar to the map now that lists the locations (I am going to try add the discipline in the sidebar as well, without taking too much space).
I am still trying to figure out how to move the map to the PDL wiki, but, in the meantime, please update the spreadsheet. We have only five entries there (and two of them I entered myself). Surely there are many more PDL users worldwide *and* on this list. If anything, it will be a good survey of the (spatial and disciplinary) extent of PDL use.
