Hi all,
* Regarding an alphabetical list:
It wouldn't be hard to print out this list - (Bob) please
email me if you want me to send you one. If many people want one then best
to contact BA directly ...
* Regarding the regional vetting, I am not sure whether
electronic submissions are now all being sent to ROs, however I do know there is
already at least one extra level of checking on the electronic submissions
compared to the paper ones - that is, all bird records are compared against
state lists before submission. They are also vetted again on entry to the main
database.
* Regarding the software - I and others have been working to
improve it, especially in making it easier to enter information.
However, it is basically software to allow electronic
submission of data (to save paper etc) and does not yet (probably never
will) provide the sort of functionality of BirdInfo or other birding
database products. Which is just as well, since it's available for free
:-)
hope this info helps,
Heather
