Hi Matej,

thanks for your suggestion - I've renamed the page (old links stays
available though with a link to the new one)

http://trac.clarin.eu/wiki/FCS-Endpoints

No, the data has to be entered via a webform, as explained at
http://trac.clarin.eu/wiki/CenterRegistry

We are planning to fill it further in, but currently there is only 1
user account to enter/change data, hope that will be fixed soon so that
centers themselve can enter the data... Will keep you posted.

I agree this way is suboptimal. It's not necessarily the final way to
indicate the FCS endpoints though. We will see what the requirements for
this field are (eg can a center have multiple endpoints - apparently
yes) and then make a proposal for a change. But this is not extremely
urgent I think.

best,
