Dear All,
what everyone can do easily (no matter how data are originally entered in excel or whatsoever format) is export datasets as simple structured text files. Then we just need a central server with IPT installed (e.g., at country nodes?) where the 'little data holders' can submit text files for publication via GBIF. Are there plans to offer such things?

Just thinking of those who cannot afford or don't know (like myself) how to set up the IPtoolkit on a server.
Cheers,
Wolfgang
