Scientific paper

Thanks to the 2dF spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, we have recently completed the first stage of a complete spectroscopic survey more than one order of magnitude larger than any previous study, measuring 7000 spectra in a 6 sq.deg. area as part of our study of the Fornax Cluster. In this article we describe the public release of 3600 spectra from our first field. We hope that this public release will encourage colleagues making surveys for rare objects to choose these fields, as much of the follow-up spectroscopy that might be required is available from our data.
