[Go-essp-tech] Incorrect dataset names

[Bryan Lawrence]

oh, yes, I agree, but it should be on the list ... and it needs revision before folks start writing papers and casting this in stone ... as happened last time, to the detriment of anyone having any clue which data folks used ....

.. and it may be one more straw for some republishing camels.

Cheers
Bryan
