>   * Consensus.
>   * Proposed on 3 Jun 1999 by Darren O. Benham; seconded by Peter S
>     Galbraith and Peter Makholm.
>   * "Since there is interest in packaging census data, maps, genome
>     data and other huge datasets I and since most people agreed that
>     dropping them in main or contrib is not a great idea, I propose
>     the creation of a data section to reside along side of main,
>     contrib and non-free." Includes rules about what goes in this
>     section.

So what now?  The ftp maintainers create the section and we
