Hello, William,

My current plan is to have dm use the .adl files and elimate such conversion
and version control issues.  However, I can't give you a date just yet due
to funding uncertainties.  If someone volunteers to support the effort
either financially or by doing the work themselves,  we could have it in
fairly short order.  It's not completely trivial, but is not an overwhelming
task either.  BTW, several people have previously requested this functionality.
