I check with Howard regularly on this since I would love to dump Signal
OnLine (which I use with Ensign) and return to DTN. Last I heard, it seemed
that DTN was going proprietary with charting tools and Howard was unable to
obtain interface specs - seemed strange since Ensign runs with both DTN
satellite and cable. Hopefully this has changed because, while I prefer DTN,
there is no way I will give up Ensign for Chameleon or any other
less-featured product. I don't know if the folks at DTN have been keeping up
with Ensign, but the 32 bit is far, far advanced from the 16 bit and the
development language is better than TS's EL. Glad you gave me the
opportunity to stir the pot!
Also, does "through network applications" mean that futures are not yet
available through DTNIQ?
