	I am quite sure that most map coordinators don't use any automation
at all.  I am investigating automation, but have not implemented it yet.

	A good guideline is that any map entry should be updated 6 to 12
months, even if it doesn't contain new information.  It gives the mapping
project coorindator an indication that your site is still alive.

	If you do have a change in connectivity, then it is always a good
idea to resubmit a new map entry as soon as possible.
