Hi dear Alois,
I am wondering that how beautiful the world of astrology research could have become if one was able to download a file of selected charts from 'myastro' section in the Astrodatabank Wiki that can work with Solar Fire or Kepler or any good standard astrology software that helps in doing research.
As no proprietary fonts would be used in the downloaded file containing the set of charts, font owners of earlier ADB will not get angry as their fonts were not used. But thousands of ADB users will be rejoiced in getting the ability to download 'categorized' set of charts are per their research needs from the big hearted ADB Wiki.
Currently, the joy of astrology research experimentation is ravished by the pain of painstaking birth data entry in the softwares.
As the ADB as a software cannot be sold nor distributed free due to font copyright issues but the data can be publicly displayed on the internet and so if that data is converted to an ASCII format or .qck format or NOVA or SF format, then that real help to mankind.
Thanks a lot Alois for reading this email.
Regards,
Avik
