I think I'll try that since I don't really want any e-mail address that 
shows
on the role/person object, they could probably give me a 'recent' snapshot
of the split file.

I thought of that too, but my analisys is restricted to Portugal and 
portuguese speaking
countrys, which represents less than 1% of the whole database and I 
would be using so much
useless bandwidth and I think there's enough pointless traffic on the 
internet :)

I'll try to contact the db operators, thanks for your suggestions!
