Great to hear Graeme, I have just sent you email with the Country Editor
password.

Also very interesting and impressive to hear about your work, well done!
Will these datasets be available publicly somewhere?
One important note on that in regards to the Census is that only government
sources are supposed to be submitted, however flawed they might be. At this
point the Census is not mapping derivative data sources from private
sector, even if they provide better results. Just to flag up.
