Tracker: AIS Feature Requests

[rgleason]

Tracker "Opencpn - Feature Requests" has 14 Tasks associated with AIS.
This is an unmanageable number of requests to realistically program and decifer. The description and need have to be clear.

Some of these items are duplicated or already implemented and others are good suggestions. We need to separate the wheat from the chafe and get a short list that has a significant number of votes by users, if you want changes/improvements made.

After registering/logging into Tracker use this link.

Please use this Thread for discussion, to make the Tracker list current, and "concise", with a comprehensible list of items that are really needed. Then vote for what is most important to you!

We are hoping that T. Rauch or someone else will lead this discussion with those who use and are passionate about AIS. Thanks, Rick (and Serge).
