Its now here, it should be able to read a zip file into a database. We are 
currently evaluating how to move forward for the transforming step. Given 
the HAFAS format is extremely feature rich, converting it into usable GTFS 
does mean ignoring data. We are very good in generating GTFS from our own 
intermediate database, but this extra may generate more noise.

I have the entire documentation currently on my ereader next to me and will 
move forward in producing something usable. Let Thomas & myself know if you 
want to collaborate then we can discuss the best way to do transport ETL :)
