Hello all,
I'm wondering if we already have a list of convenient data sources for 
common data: e.g. STRM, world rivers (digital chart of the world). 
Since we expect random users to want ancillary data it seems like it 
would be worth our while to have such a doc.
Does it exist? Didn't someone talk about this earlier? Did that 
discussion lead to a skeleton document?
I tried setting up this information on the Community page of the 
website. The heading is called FreeData on the right.
- http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/UDIG/Community
You will also find a link there to "Test Servers" (very little of which 
is actually tested).

On the geowanking list there are people talking about serving up useful 
data for the states, Paul Ramsey has been kind about hosting some of the 
nice data we use for testing and tutorials.
I should also mention the Search view - although slow to get going, it 
can find you all sorts of useful information.
