BGPS data paper published

Metalinking! The BGPS paper finally made it onto astro-ph today. It will be published in ApJS before the year's end.

Links to all of the published BGPS papers at the Bolocam Data Team website

And just because I want more linking, here they all are again:
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey I. Survey Description and Data Reduction arXiv
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey II. Catalog of the Image Data arXiv
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey III. Characterizing Physical Properties of Massive Star-Forming Regions in the Gemini OB1 Molecular Cloud arXiv
The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey IV: λ = 1.1 and 0.35 mm Dust Continuum Emission in the Galactic Center Region

The same set of links is reproduced at the pipeline googlecode page.
