The present access system is a provisional one and is subject to change. It is probable that large data requests will be distributed by tape medium in the future and that ftp downloads may be limited in size.

During the April 1998 commissioning period, test data on a small number of fields was obtained. This data is made available to the community. This test data is currently located in Cambridge, UK. Some brief explanatory notes are available.

We ask that authors using this data employ the standard acknowledgement in their papers.
