Great; since today I must focus on studying for an incoming exam :/
so I want have much free time to put in UPP.

The GUI code anyway is practically complete; I'm aware of three small problems 
with it currently:
- the drawing code for various package types yet needs to be written;
- the loading of floating values from Piklab files doesn't work correctly when 
locale != en_US. This is because wxString::ToDouble() expects the floating point 
separator to be in the right form for the current locale (in my case it should 
be ',') but in Piklab files a dot is always used. I'm fixing this in wx now 
(enhancing wxString::ToDouble);
- wxGTK package drawing at startup isn't correct and you need to manually force 
a redraw changing the package variant to get it right

I'll focus on these tasks so that if you want to work on the "backend" part we 
won't make conflicting changes...
