Does anyone know if this release includes the DAO decode code?
Yes. Decoding only.
If it is there, will XASTIR automatically decode and plot DAO packets ( except the the square of uncertainty)?
Yes, it should.
I am just trying to screw up the courage to take a system that is working, (with held from all you folks!) and upgrade it to the new version of Xastir. By the way. I am running openSUSE 10.2. In practical terms, what are the advantages to upgrading to openSUSE 11.0.
If you're happy with 10.2 and are worried about screwing up the system, then don't. I ran 10.3 on multiple systems for quite a while and it worked well. I finally upgraded my last 10.3 system to 11.0 just this week. Are you aware of the Xastir RPM's that I've been releasing when I do a snapshot? They're on my Eskimo ftp site and I released the latest 10.3 version just a little while ago. I make 11.0 versions yesterday. This is the easiest way to install Xastir on an SuSE system. I won't be releasing any more 10.x versions as I no longer have any 10.x systems to prepare them on. You may be able to install the 10.3 RPM on your 10.2 system. If you want to keep up with Xastir RPM's from now on, you'll want to upgrade to 11.0. If compiling Xastir from sources it's fine to stick with 10.2, probably indefinitely. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
