ok this is getting interesting

here is not only legal confirmation of the 2 future tripoints i had til now only surmised
to whatever extent this future may be predictable
but also evidence of a hitherto unnoticed but presently real north south condominium
& possibly even a steer toward locating its surprise bonus condo tripoints too
http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/rwb.nsf/db900SID/SZIE-5ZJR4Z?OpenDocument

for evidently all that is needed for this is a map of the mentioned 9 ngok dinka chiefdoms
seeing as they are all now officially in 2 places at once
straddling the divide between north & south

according to this recent comment
http://www.sudaneseonline.com/earticle2005/oct5-50593.shtml
the boundary demarcation process of the condo territory has already been finalized

so
can anyone find or point the way to an official or even an unofficial map of it
