	:Wikis are not a good platform for a data repository. Normally the file size limit is 2Mb, I have increased it to 50Mb, but beyond that there is risk of the browser or server timing out during transfer. Http is not a good protocol for uploading large files because during transfer the browser is just hanging and gets no feedback until the transfer is complete. I have added '.tgz' and '.gz' to the allowed file types so you can try uploading one of those if it's small enough. I'll see about finding a place for the datasets, but people may have to rely on me to put them online.		:Wikis are not a good platform for a data repository.

			:Jan, I see that we do have a Datasets repository set up at SCI. I will have to place the files into it myself, however. I have re-added the link to the FireFlux data. I have no idea about the metadata. Janice gave me the file so perhaps she could add more info about it. [[Fire_Flux_Dataset]]

	Yes, I figured that. I thought we removed all links to the copyvio file but apparently not. It may be best to configure the wiki to allow .zip files. Do you think it would be suitable for a data repository? With each dataset I'd like to have some metadata information, at least original URL, description, author, license, and what software it opens with. Thanks!
