The goal is to make it work with every .DS configuration in ALDLStuff.zip. 
Lofty, but attainable. ;-) If the Cadillac ALDL datastream is defined in 
that, my goal is to make it work.

The caveat here remains that it will be a few months (end of September, 
probably) before I can start work on the ALDL re-write, so at the moment 
everything said so far is vaporware. But I'll make good.

Interesting... will it be able to work with OBDI Cadillac Northstar/4.9
applications? I have a few of those lying around and they refuse to
communicate with anything but the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) in the
original car... it's just too bad they're not in the original car...

I really appreciate all of your hard work on this software. I think it's
really driving the DIY community into the mainstream.
