*** How about a standardized API for doing DUATS-type stuff, e.g., getting
weather reports and filing flight plans? I've seen at least one TCL script
for doing this, but DUATS alas changes their format occasionally - such
scripts are always out of date. Also, there are at least two different
DUATS services.
Such an API/"driver" could be a nice building block towards creating
industrial-strength flight planning S/W.
