Hi Danny, Do not invest too much work muna on the WESM display, as we are trying to get something that might suit our purposes better (more freq. updates, and a smaller coverage --- Meralco service area lang, for example). Thanks for all the effort,
If others want to volunteer your servers, you're welcome! (It will just be a single image that people will download, so it should not put too much load on your server...)
