One of them is the perl module Ham::APRS::FAP. Or at least was a couple
of days ago when I last looked at the code. Anyway there are some
inconsistencies in your proposal that I'd rather see addressed (like the
overlays for compressed packets) before jumping to any code changes. Not
to mention the questionable usefulness of an end-user-defined priority
scheme.

Yes you are right here, I read what I thought you wrote instead of
really reading what you wrote.
