Dear Dr. York,
I have been attempting to get in contact with a Dr Brendan R. Whyte, who
published a 2002 paper that I am interested in.
However, I am getting a mail delivery failure from the servers at your
university, and I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of
any place where i might be able to find more recent contact information for
him?
Thanks
Larry O'Neill

To: bwhyte at unimelb.edu.au, talk-bd at openstreetmap.org
Dear Dr. Whyte,
I recently came across your 2002 study of the Cooch Behar enclaves of India
and Bangladesh, and it has made for captivating reading (although I have not
yet finished it).
Your study came to my attention when I was looking at refinements that could
be made to the Bangladeshi border on Open Street Map.
My realisation that the projects current border may be inaccurate came when
I found someone had given St Martins Island to Myanmar (first and subsequent
drafts, until today)
While I was aware of the existence of enclaves along the border, the number,
size, and complexity of them is something I could never have imagined.
With a view towards further refinement of the Open Street Map data, I am
hence asking for permission (on behalf of osm.org) to use some of the maps
included in your document as a source for our map.
If you require a more formal request or further details on Open Street Map,
please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks
Larry O'Neill
