-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bryce, thanks for the hints, these are all good points an I believe we can proceed accordingly for this import/update. We will document in the Wiki once we have a better understanding of how many stations are at affected by the initial update. So far there is only a manual push via mail from the provider once an update is made available so all the follow-up will also initially be manual.
