Bruce Joffe wrote in
with an AB1978 update. AB1978, a bill which Assemblymember Solorio
proposed, would have limited public availability of GIS databases in

1978 from consideration by the Government Organization committee,
which
effectively kills the bill. ..."

"A model of international collaboration, that. Imagine the
advances...an improved geoid through gravimetry. Dang, that's worth
