Yes, that's what I meant:
today: HAFAS calculates all routes and irail returns these results unaltered
tomorrow: irail gets transport data (timetables, live delay data) from
different transport organisations and uses it's own algorithms to calculate
optimal routes
Indeed, this will be needed for international connections anyway
