>It seems that approaching HERs directly is not going to make anyone happy - it's playing some sort of political game. True, but then refusing to take the data would also be viewed as taking a certain stance within the 'political game'. * And if finders aren't happy to share with PAS then why would they be happy to share with the HER? Because they don't see HERs as an arm of 'Big Brother' government, and don't necessarily associate us with their perception that some archaeologists are out to restrict/ban their hobby? * I guess we need some sort of consensus over whether we should import this data or not. Who'd get the final say about it? English Heritage? Collective decision at a forum meeting? Detectorists could perceive EH as being yet another arm of government. Up here there is no PAS, and we have to take the information directly into the SMR so there's less of an issue.
