It is definitely better to use the cntry02 data because the difference between
the dcwpo-browse data and the cntry02 is more than just a bit. At least it is
more than I would like to swim. I have attached a screen-shot which shows the
offset. (The redish color represents the dcwpo-browse data.) To my opinion the
dcwpo-browse data is completely corrupted and should be fixed or discarded in
order to avoid any serious damage in case someone is using that in a real
application.
