> 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.
