containers (folders) was to provide a flexibility for others to
use if they so desired. They can also be easily removed in the
future. I'm also planning on building separate Viewers for
each, but I can also build a composite viewer. Each of these

If the Natural Earth dataset doesn't provide data in the right
format to highlight GeoMoose examples, then we should probably
source another common dataset which can be used by multiple
applications.<br>
I remember Simon Cropper had similar comments a while back when he
was creating tutorials for gvsig.<br>
<br>
So my question is, what dataset should we provide? (The data should
be suitably licenced, either public domain as per Natural Earth, or
another open licence like Creative Commons).<br>
