Now that is a great idea! How about we create a standard and start peddling
it? My GlidingComps.com website parses XML files to generate scoring
results.


But the is already an IGC XML standard for Waypoints and there has been
for 5 years now.

However, to date no manufacturer uses it so John L does not include it.

Cool idea...

Any turnpoint formats already in XML? Makes me wonder why so much
existing software hasn't already switched to XML format for
turnpoints...much easier to parse. Instead there are 20 different
proprietary file formats.
