Regarding my last post requesting global Carex data for the Carex 
Interactive Key at
http://utc.usu.edu/keys/Carex/Carex.html

Thank you to all that have contributed both data and time. 
A  web page that lists the individual contributors  is now posted at  
http://utc.usu.edu/keys/support/collab.html
All contributed data is in the authors original format and also as a 
converted text file for those leery of .doc and .xls files (tab 
delimited). 

This collaboration is truly making the regional data much easier to 
check and double check.  Thanks to the contributions thus far,
the Carex key can now effectively be used in the US, Canada, Greenland, 
Iceland,  Sweden, Norway, Finland,  and the U.K. 
Plus all GBIF, GRIN, KEW, and MOBOT regional data are now  incorporated 
for  taxa currently within the key. 
Thank you also to all that recommended these websites.

I encourage anyone with Carex databased or with species checklists for a 
region  to contribute to this collaboration. 
As before, any format is acceptable. 
 
Additionally, to those who had spam filter issues with my original post,
I will not use the word "desire" in the subject line again! 
Lesson learned,
Tim
