Hi Tony,

It sounds like you are proposing creating a separate "obantoo-data"
package that is updated regularly.

Fortunately there is only place in the source code that references the
data file [3] (and then a few further lines down for the CSV file for
Austria [4]), and it wouldn't be too difficult to write a patch to
source these files from the file system.  If we decide to go this path,
we'll want to exclude the data files from the obantoo sources when we
repack the source archive. (Otherwise we would end up with a large diff
to represent the deletions.)

Does that sound like a reasonable solution?  I can help with patch for
obantoo if that's helpful.

I would be happy to accept such a patch into the obantoo package.
Would one of you be willing to come up with a obantoo-data package?

Cheers Jochen
