There's the DTA (Daten Traeger Austausch) Format used in Switzerland by
--all-- banks. The format is --open-- (!). I know that there's something
similar (or the same thing with a similar name) in Germany (check
freshmeat for that). I wonder if there's an international standard for
transfering "bookings" (is that the correct english word?). It sure would
be interesting to have such a thing in the form of a library.
