What is the procedure to submit FoxtrotGPS code changes? In my day job I am reluctantly a Windows / C# programmer and I need this both as personal therapy and because I am convinced I can build a better "nuvi" than Garmin can. Better for me anyway.
My biggest goal is to fix the spelling on "metric" :-) Is it really spelled "metrical" someplace? def met·ri·cal adj.1. Of, relating to, or composed in poetic meter After that is accomplished I want to add USNG support. I realize those outside the US might not want US national grid support cluttering up their config screens, so should it be a compile time or run time option? Hopefully USNG will be widely adopted over time in the US, it is a much better system than the many variations of lat lon. Making it more widely available is my way of promoting it. I have a colleague (call him "Al") in emergency services who is testing TangoGPS. Al is already lamenting the lack of USNG and I want to support him. I just got some APRS gadgets and would like to work on the AVL service (what they call "friends" in Tango). BTW calling it "friends" might make for resistance to acceptance in professional applications. Have to call them something else. "Co-workers" or maybe "Entities". Heh. Anyway has anyone been working on this?? (The feature itself that is, not changing its name :-) It's mentioned on the Foxtrot roadmap page. (A "roadmap" -- how appropriate!)
