[Cod-bugs] Missing Journal Information

[Saulius Gražulis]

Dear Robert,

the records you mentioned in your file are updated, please have a look. 
I've checked several selectively, all looks right.

The TSV file is perfect, I would just add column names as the first 
line, as permitted in the RFC 4180 (i add an example of the same 
original TSV, supplemented by column headers).

The total work time for me to convert, update and check the COD from you 
file is about 1h, so this is a considerable saving from what I would 
have to do if I collect the data myself. Also, it does not depend much 
on the number of records to process (updating 200 records from the same 
table would take about the same, maybe checking lower percentage of 
update records than now). Thus I can squeeze this update into my 
schedule predictably. So this is a very significant help from you, 
thanks a lot once more!

If you have more of these please let us know :), I understand that it 
takes time to collect the data reliably, but all help from community is 
highly appreciated, we simple can not do all of it ourselves :)

Sincerely yours,
Saulius
