Howdy Fellas'

I am a newbie to FlightGear and am impressed by its performance. My 
greetings to all the developers and everyone associated with the 
projects development.

I have a few queries about the generic I/O protocol. A quick Google 
search informed be that the protocol can now take input as well (the 
readme file of my installation still mentions output only). This is 
wonderful news but how can the same protocol work as both input and 
output (dir = bi) simultaneously? Is it possible to mention in the XML 
file as to which chunks are meant for output and which chunks are 
input? Else what sense would it make to take input and give an output 
of the same thing?

Currently i wish to have some property values outputted out of the 
serial port and have some other property values inputted through the 
same serial port. How do i do that? Have two separate protocol files 
and configure them as in and out respectivesly to work over the same 
serial port?

Another thing i would like to know is what are the minimal set of data i 
need to provide to allow me to define the state of the aircraft (these 
are my input values). Currently i can only input 6DOF (lat, lon, alt, 
roll, pitch, heading/yaw). Will this set of minimal input be sufficient 
to simulate the aircraft in GUI?

Thanks people for such a wonderful and configurable flight simulator!
