[DAS2] Re: Apollo and DAS/2 priorities

[Nomi Harris]

hopefully the server will be up-to-date by early next week so i will work
on the GET requests then.

i wrote a simple das2xml feature writer that writes out features the same
way they appeared in the example i had (which i will add to the end of
this message).  that is working.  i figured it would be worth doing,
since it only took me two hours and it shouldn't be too hard to modify it
to reflect the latest changes.

i guess the next thing i should work on is to bring my das2xml feature
reader up to spec, based on andrew's latest examples.  is
das2/scratch/features4.xml a good one to use?  it has a lot of elements
and fields that were not in my previous example.

here is part of the example i've been using, which i got from the
netaffxdas server.
