That page is way above my understanding, but what I had in mind was to be
able to change the way it is displayed so if I wanted to have the
month/day/year I could, but if another user wanted it day/month/year or
year/day/month they could.
I'll make it much simpler than that page, but it basically says that there'll be %X parameter that represent the various components of the date/time. Whatever you put in the configuration parameter will govern what displays.
On the time it would be nice if we could select a time zone independent of
the device, say GMT time for instance we could and be able to select either
a 12 or 24 hour format.
GMT vs the device is not too difficult. Arbitrary time zones are MUCH harder! 12 vs 24 will be automatic given the %X parameters mentioned above.
Since you ask, I thought I would ask. :)
I'm always willing to listen to any and all ideas. The best part about being the developer is I get to choose what does and does not make the cut (although with me, it's normally WHEN it gets implemented, not IF).
I can't remember if you said you were going to try to let us track a
specific call, but that would be nice; similar to what it is with
where you can 'type' in a call and if it is
available it will display it and scroll the screen so we can view their
progress. I know it is much better on a computer screen but if you are out
away from yours it would be nice to see where they were.
Yes, that is absolutely in the plans, as is the ability to pan around the map with some way of getting it back to you (or the currently selected station) in the center. Not sure when I'll get that going, but I just added the course/speed parsing. I've got a few more things to do before it's worth putting another release out though.
