If I remember correctly we had a central database which the held the names
of DO's etc for all HEI's. I think it was called the disinhe web-site.
I think this site is not working anymore, but something along these lines
would seem to be sensible way forward.
It could be hosted on the NADO web-site?
Many thanks
