I just bought some really nice domains for my #APRS project:

aprs-x.com (also got .org)
axps.org

I plan to use aprs-x for the protocol specification itself and axps for the software I am writing that will run it.

@freemo

What are you doing with APRS? I'm happy to see somebody doing something with it other than "look at me on the map!"

@kilroy_was_here I am writing a new protocol I would like to see replace APRS, it is designed to be backwards compatible with APRS until the new protocol becomes pervasive enough to turn off backwards compatibility.

The new protocol is design to have better control over routing of packets both in terms of cross-band routing, and long-distance routing (many hops, not using IGates).

Past that core functionality there is a lot of other things that enable I'd like to do int he guture.

@freemo Oooo I like that long-distance routing idea. I'm not against IGates, but at the same time they're one more thing to fail and another source of headaches. I'm all for simple.
