Adaprs

I've recently been bitten by the APRS bug; it's a neat way to combine computers with Ham Radio, and it was explicitly designed to support real-time, tactical communications. It's pretty neat.

Well, just for my own fun, I've decided to write my own APRS software. My design goals, however, are, I think, just a little different than the usual *aprs program: I want the thing to be able to use USGS DEM and DLG maps as input, and render the maps in 3D.

To accomplish this, I'm coding it in Ada95, and using the GTK+ toolkit. For the 3D library, I'll be using OpenGL.
