Fine, great -- *** provided that this curated data absolutely and always 
uses and is provided in widely accepted, widely used, non-proprietry, 
long-term stable, "industry standard" formats *** -- both in coming 
downward from Wolfram, and in coming back out of Mathematica after 
processing.

[Formats as standard as JPEG, TIFF, RTF, PDF, EPS, etc. -- and if 
Wolfram wants or needs to use its unquestionable skills to develop new 
and better formats for such, *** let them put these out and get them 
formally accepted as widely accepted new standards ***.]
