Well, at least these are promising prospects - time will show if the
wishes come true.
Different sources agree on the assumtion that the only reason not to
publish the VATSIM network protocol is because the authentication
system is so terribly bad and they fear that publishing the protocol
could be understood as an invitation to everyone for hacking it. If
they now aim at overhauling at least the authentication this could lead
to interesting opportunities,
