Pedigree Resource File CDs

This is the info I have found about these new disks, none of it
official, just talking to someone which has them.

They have taken the GEDCOMs and put them into a database and the disk
has an index of this database. The interface to the database has
the look/feel of Companion. You can search, view, and print like
Companion. Each record shows the person who uploaded the GEDCOM.

But there is no way to view records by GEDCOM or person to see all of the
records uploaded in that GEDCOM or by that person.

Plans are to create a master index after xx(05?) disks and this
master index will be on it's own disk.
