Absolutely. Having arrived late and spent time rummaging in the archive of <br/>
this group, I&#39;m acutely aware of how much information is stored there, but by <br/>
the nature of the Q&A style in a poorly accessible way. I&#39;m still coming <br/>
across stuff that makes me realise &gt;50% of my questions/input so far has <br/>
covered old ground (sorry); and that wasn&#39;t for lack of effort on my part to <br/>
search the archive before putting my foot in - just that to some extent to <br/>
recover stuff from the archive you need to know it already!<br/>
Big task though, and I can&#39;t imagine how to start it ...<br/>
<br/>
As a core data set that may be useful, I&#39;ve attached an XLS file containing a <br/>
digest of the current CIA Factbook&#39;s information on maritime boundary claims. <br/>
The usual 192 countries plus the most widely accepted dependencies, and a <br/>
figure for the Territorial Sea, Contiguous Zone, Exclusive Economic <br/>
Zone/Exclusive Fishing Zone whenever such a claim is listed by the CIA. Plus <br/>
some notes when these seem necessary/interesting.<br/>
