Those sound like good suggestions to me, Markus, and thanks for the 
encouragement to others to get their nodes listed.

I should mention that I think Mary does a fine job of listing and updating 
the list of nodes; any lack of inclusion of an AGN is due to the node 
originators to submit the information, not to Mary.
