how often is the Admin2Codes.txt file regenerated?
I've created an adm2 in Azerbaijan some time ago (Kangarli Rayon, 8014931), and it doesn't appear in this file.

				<title>Horad Minsk</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

Horad Minsk (625143) has been changed from ADM1 to ADM2, which is wrong.

I tried to put it back to adm1, but I'm not sure the process was completed (ADM1 usually appear under country>ADM1, and here it only appears under country).]]></description>

				<title>Clipperton Island</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

Clipperton Island, in the Pacific Ocean, is indicated as an ADMD of France.
It is actually neither a DOM (Departement d'Outre Mer, like Guadeloupe or Reunion), nor a TOM (Territoire d'Outre Mer like St Martin or St Pierre et Miquelon). It is just a "possession" of France, administrated by the French minister of Overseas. Note: nobody's living there.

I would recommend to add a country code for this atoll (FIPS: IP or ISO alpha-2 : CP), make it a dependant political entity, and place it in the Northern American continent.]]></description>

some places in Svalbard and Jan Majen are indicated under Norway.
Ex: Jan Majen airport (6296746) or Losbåten (3041935).

				<title>Problem with CountrySubdivision webservice</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

there are several problems with the CountrySubdivision ws 

* <u>it sometimes returns ADMD instead of ADM1.</u>
Ex: Skovde Flygplats (id 6296792, 58.4564 / 13.97267)
<a href='http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=58.4564&lng=13.97267&maxRows=10&radius=40&username=demo' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=58.4564&lng=13.97267&maxRows=10&radius=40&username=demo</a>
The ws returns: Skaraborg (2678206, ADMD) instead of Västra Götaland.


* <u>Answers in XML and JSON may differ:</u>
<a href='http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=47&lng=11.5&maxRows=10&radius=10&username=demo' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=47&lng=11.5&maxRows=10&radius=10&username=demo</a>
<a href='http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivisionJSON?lat=47&lng=11.5&radius=10&maxRows=10&username=demo' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivisionJSON?lat=47&lng=11.5&radius=10&maxRows=10&username=demo</a>


* <u>results differ whether the maxRows parameter is present or not:</u>
<a href='http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=51.01667&lng=-57.1&radius=10&username=demo' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=51.01667&lng=-57.1&radius=10&username=demo</a>
<a href='http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=51.01667&lng=-57.1&maxRows=10&radius=10&username=demo' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://api.geonames.org/countrySubdivision?lat=51.01667&lng=-57.1&maxRows=10&radius=10&username=demo</a>


* and results would be easier to handle if the ws returned the ADM1 id instead of its name in full letters...

				<title>New adm1 in Hungary</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

a new adm1 has been created recently in Hungary: Érd Megyei Város (7603250).

Erd is actually a city with county rights (like 22 other cities) but it belongs to a county and is not an independant territorial unit. So this adm1 entry should be deleted.

* <a href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungary#Administrative_divisions' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungary#Administrative_divisions</a>
* Hungarian Central Statistical office : <a href='http://www.nepszamlalas.hu/eng/' target='_new' rel="nofollow">http://www.nepszamlalas.hu/eng/</a>
In the Gazetteer of the Republic of Hungary (.xls doc), there are only references to the 20 "standard" counties.]]></description>

				<title>Egypt update</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello,

2 governorates have been reincorporated in the governorate they detach from some years ago:
* 6th of October => Giza
* Helwann => Cairo

				<title>Rdf file update</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Hello Marc,

Just a few questions about the rdf dump: when was it last generated? How often do you generate it?

Would it be possible to generate a new one?

By the way, it may be useful to mention the generation date on the ontology page.

Thanks in advance.
