A quick something I've been thinking about while wading through posts...

Rich wrote, “It does open up some interesting technical Q's, on how to
merge two databases. I suspect this is the sort of thing we will have to
deal with in the future, so now would be a great time to explore the
problems of integrations.”

Sean wrote, “.. spelling error, scraping. Basically, we do what google
does. We scan the web pages from other plant database web sites and
archive the information with our own data.”

And then Lawrence asked, “Would it be possible for PIW to have/host
multiple databases, each with different structural needs?…Does this mean
that someone using PIW could request info that we don't have but
USDA does…”

And then Bear said, let there be RDB. hey Bear, isn’t all this what RDB
is used for?

curious
