POTY 2010 files are available; I hope I've
included everything. I don't
know what the setup was like in past years but this year I've included
the xml of the description pages and the md5sums of the tar files. See

The POTY2010 seem to be online now at
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/poty/2010/ and everything seems to be far
okay. The files displayed below are the files missing (deleted from wiki
commons presumably) at the point of image tarball creation. The only real
issue I have is the character-code mess up when there's non-English symbols
in the filenames; like "Manuel_Reimóndez_Portela_-_A_Estrada_-_Galiza.jpg"
for "Manuel Reimóndez Portela - A Estrada - Galiza-3.jpg".

I hope others will appreciate the natural beauty of many of the images in
the POTY packages! There's historic pictures and images about the Apollo
mission, detailed charts about the South Pole, many sharp images of small
insects and birds, photographs of mineral crystals and there's even a 217
megapixel scan of "The Garden of Earthly Delights"! It is a
magnificent compilation featuring a wide variety of man-made art and
information!
It makes me wonder, do the Picture-of-the-day images usually also end up in
POTY, it'd be a shame if they were left out, but I'll just guess they're
all in there.
