[Datastream #QJP-354748]: GEM data

Hi Paul, 

After they allowed us to distribute the data from our IDD nodes these 
restrictions
are no longer in play. I will contact CMC and make double check :) ..and update 
the referenced URL
to clarify the new policy.

I'll confirm Monday, but am pretty sure you can open up access
