My current affiliation (University of Jena) seems to be willing to provide me with the possibility to host the data base and the documentation of the package, although I am moving to University of Cologne next month. Reasons: The main part of the spkg was created in Jena, my main co-worker is professor in Jena, and our computational results in human-readable form are available in Jena anyway. So, I guess the sources of the spkg will go to github (to finally convert it to the new spkg format), the data and documentation will be in Jena, and the main author will be in Cologne... > I could host the files fine at UW now -- the issues are resolved.

I don't recall) whether hosting digital data bases for advanced mathematical research lies within the purpose of OpenDreamKit. The kick-off meeting of OpenDreamKit is right now...
