Hi Jesus and others, the question is, will a complete new package-class will make sense? I don't know, how the policy is on that issue, but I for myself can say, that I really don't care, how the class is called in the end, that's for the policy guxs of PEAR... In the meantime I'm almost done with METAR, the Weather-framework is already working with WeatherDotCom.php. It is now possible to enter geographical coordinates and get the nearest available METAR-station for current conditions. I'm using a SQLite-database for that task, that was created out of a file, that is available for download on the net. My question is, if it is feasible to include these databases (in fact two of them) for a total count of 1552kB, or if I just should say, when you want to use this function, go ahead download that file and run it through the db-builder I provide with the package. I like the out-of-the -box version better, but that would result in a significant larger file. Would be great, if you guys could give me some ideas here... Regards, Alexander
