Provide a zipped copy of the of the Shapefiles folder. This will enable users to download the files with much each when tooling.

Remove the README file from the CSV folder, and the contents in this README can be merged with the main README file

Hi Henry - thanks for the very thoughtful suggestion. I've merged your other request regarding CSVs. Very smart.

I actually disagree with you on the readme, since I think that having the info in context is more useful – even though I suspect it breaks with typical Git protocol. As far as you know, does doing so cause problems with tooling?

I can add a zipped shp file collection – do you mean one zip per shp file bundle or the whole set?

We can leave that README in there its okey since it does not break any tooling.

Zipping the shp files as a whole set.
