Javier

Would you be able to suggest improvements to the form that we are pulling
together
to capture this kind of datasets and information, or would this work?

https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&authkey=CInOg4MJ&formkey=dFc1YTQ0ZWlXMkVCVERuUXVXTERqVVE6MQ#gid=0

(This is work that I started this summer and that was put on hold while the
OKF tried
to secure some funding for it)

I can give you editing access

Thanks
