XCSoar will not send "missing" points because it does not know how much has been received by the server. It sends unidirectional data packets, but does not get any reply / feedback. That's a weakness, but also a big strength, at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
