Wrote it before. Good coverage is great, but not if we buy this by letting some
quality data and possibilities like wifi APs aside. If this could be added to
openceelid I aggree that openbmpa should merge their db into it and use that one
as basis for the webservices they use.

Please also integrate Jan's patches for newer FSO releases when you reach the
free-time slot.

I think we should prefer a way to have the db on the device itself. Onen gave
some hints why. That of course includes a way to sync new data to the device.
