Thanks to Geoff Gatward, VK2XJG/VK8GG, we now have the capability in Xastir to display weather alerts for Australia and Tasmania in a similar manner to what we currently do with NWS weather alerts here in the U.S.
At the same time, he updated our get-NWSdata script and a couple of dbfawk files for the U.S., so he went above and beyond his duties in supplying these patches.
In order to see the new alerts:
*) Update to the new CVS.
*) Do the usual bootstrap/configure/make/make install thing for Xastir.
*) Run the get-BOMdata and get-NWSdata scripts (as root) to get the latest Shapefiles.
*) Start the new Xastir.
*) Connect up to Firenet or the APRS-IS stream.
