It's available now!

Here is the terrain generator:

http://xcsoar.dd.com.au/cgi-bin/terrain.pl

Just put in the Lat/Long or supply a turnpoint file and it will
generate the altitude data for XCSoar.

You can use the Cambridge format for the turnpoints and any one of
several SUA formats.

It just takes a little research to get the whole thing together.

Does XCSoar use NMEA sentences only, or is it smart enough to use the
pressure and vario data thrown in by devices like the LX7007?

Does it have a thermal assistant that compares to WinPilot Pro (which
uses said data)?

XCSoar doesn't use the PCAID sentence from my 302(a), but I don't know
about other devices.
