Sweet. I'll have a look.

You will likely want to do this for pcs.csv (all the projected coordinate

And (technically now a gdal question) how do the csv files get produced? ie.
from the EPSG dataset available at epsg.org they get loaded into a postgres
db and another script gets run to produce the csv files?

Thanks,
