Israel maps

[Bob Izenberg]

The Israel map entry that arrived here on 1/8/91 contains:

# u.isr.1
# Last change:  Tue May  9 23:19:08 EDT 1989
#
#  Since no one appears to want to be responsible for the file, the data
#  has been declared out of date and removed.

A friend (cynically?) speculated that rather than no one wanting to be
responsible for the file, everyone did, but didn't want anyone else to
be.  Regardless, can someone who knows explain the situation here?
