[Marble-devel] Request for maps sources in Marble package

If the request is about the Atlas map:
The vector lines in there are based on the 
MWDBII ("micro world database") with a few updates
from 1990. So some country borders lack recent 
changes. This however isn't easy to fix.

Best Regards,
Torsten
