Right, as discussed on IRC, this seems like a great opportunity to
join up with others sharing goals, a project already close to home.
And it seems Hobu is already happy in principle to set up an instance
of subversion for this. 

The only issue seems to be one of namespace, would Ralf et al be happy
for their code to be stored underneath a generic 'geodata' repository.
If you are happy to liase between customscenery and hobu as is
necessary, that would be great.

A status probably isn't necessary, and working groups seem to be
something made up on the wiki that don't really exist. ;)

cheers,
