Hi Dan, you can find all backbone data here, it should not be a terribly long download: http://rs.gbif.org/datasets/backbone/ best, Markus On 15.

I started the download from my browser and the expected download time keeps bouncing between 8 hours and 12 hours. Two questions: 1. Is there a location on the Internet where I can download that file in a reasonable timeframe? 2. Is there a url that will function properly to download the file without requiring javascript? Is there any interest in developing mirrors or a CDN to host some of these things within the community?
