Before version 2.0, fldigi was able to look up callsigns by "screen scraping" the QRZ html pages (which is _possibly_ what digipan and dm780 do now -- I really don't know). Later, QRZ changed its web page format and its owner also made it clear that he neither approved of screen scrapers, nor would he make any particular effort to accommodate them. At the time, we were planning to use XML for an unrelated purpose and so, rather than try to play catch-up, we wrote a client for QRZ's XML access interface. The XML insterface is a bit faster and has so far worked without fault. It does require a user account and paid subscription as described here: http://online.qrz.com/ 73, Stelios, M0GLD.
