To the PDL user from Alexandria, VA, USA: please provide the main discipline in which you use PDL.
To the PDL user from Tuorla, Finland: You had provided a negative longitude, putting Tuorla just off of Iceland. Not good. I corrected that to a positive longitude, so Tuorla now shows up correctly nearly Turku. To others who haven't entered their information: c'mon. It won't cost you a thing, it won't violate your anonymity and privacy, and it will help show PDL in a good light by showcasing both its spatial and disciplinary usage. We have only 12 data points thus far. Twelve! That is hardly worth 'make && make install'. Please go to http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Am3SSF48QCE9dERjcko2YWNrSzJVLUZLd1QyaldsYXc&hl=en and do the right thing. To those who shepherd the PDL sf.net web site: do you know how I can embed an iframe inside Media Wiki?
