Specimen databases

[Andrew K. Rindsberg]

With so many databases available for taxonomy, my main criterion would have
to be whether the data can be downloaded into other programs. I don't want
to be stuck (again!) with the same software until it is no longer available,
and then have to start over with another program. Which of these databases
is most convertible?
