Ron,

Thanks for your comments - and for your generosity; your atlas will be of
great interest to Vernians world-wide. The extra maps would, I am sure, be
most welcome.

If Garmt and Sean are agreeable, we could also tie in the present and
proposed web-based charts, both surface and undersea, forming the hub of a
Verne Atlas Project. What do people think?

Sounds like we have the potential for a very interesting international
project, sourced here in the Forum!

I am open to all comments and suggestions from other forum users.

Stuart

This would be no problem.

I did the atlas mainly for fun and the edification of my fellow
Vernians . . . not to make money.

I can even provide a couple of additional maps. How would that be?
