Default OLC and CAI Binary File Validation (was SSA OLC Region for Flight Claim)

They weren't so much "solutions" as they were examples to help Doug
understand that he was being given a line. I agree that they have an
agenda which they aren't revealing. But it isn't gaining them users, at
least at my club. Most pilots there believe that the interface and
upload procedures are just too clunky and confusing to be worth their
time.

The brush-off might have something to do with the fact that all of these
"solutions" are specific to IIS/ASP running on Windows servers, when I
believe OLC runs Apache on Linux servers. That said, binary file upload
is pretty trivial to implement using the standard mechanisms provided in
HTML/HTTP, which suggests they have other reasons for not doing so...
