Better than that, I have figured out most of the protocol :D

I'm looking to make an app that takes the info and broadcasts it as an xpl
message, with a view to getting the info into xplhal to play about with, so
I'm posting more details about what I found on the ukha_xpl list instead:
It's probably a little too in depth for ukha_d.

(that and, inevitably, some twazzock will appear from left field to have a
go because the entire thought of doing it mortally offends their very soul
;) )
