Just looking at the relevant Simgear code - it already runs through GZip, so I'm not worried about overhead there - and the versioning system looks pretty sane to deal with too. There's already the version check for short-vs-unsigned-short counts, adding a new version increment and making the values longs looks pretty easy. BUT, if I modify the current Simgear code on 'next', is that the only place that needs to be changed, or is there another copy of this code somewhere in the terragear repo? I know terragear depends on simgear, but I've not looked at which code is actually shared.
