Re: Travel Model Integration

Zachary

As I mentioned in another direct email (this response is in case others
on the list are interested), the code for this is in the psrc package
under configs, and emme2. All of the code, including the psrc
packackage, is available from our subversion repository using your
preferred svn client (I like Qsvn), from:
htpps://trondheim.cs.washington.edu/svn/opus/. Check it out into your
workspace and then examine these files in the psrc package.

Eventually we need to clean up these travel model interfaces and make
them more general and standardized. Volunteers to help with this are
welcome.

Cheers,

Paul
