One suggestion for the help text for map, waypoint, airspace files etc is to
also include the location(s) that XCSoar is currently looking for them.
Such as:
"Primary waypoints file. Supported file types are Cambridge/WinPilot
files (.dat), Zander files (.wpz) or SeeYou files (.cup).
Place these in 'Storage Root\XCSoarData' "
I'm sure it would save people who are new to working with these files some
headaches - i know it took me a bit of mucking around to find the working
directory.

should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database
without downtime or disruption
