within the files there is a cpdlc.xml which is set up very nice however there is no information how that is actually used in relation to pilots.

currently making my own observer pack for MUAC.

The CPDLC messages populate the CPDLC Editor Window and are sent as standard text "radio" messages, you can think of it as an alias file essientially.

No it doesn’t.  

CPDLC when every client is still it’s own flight data island is not ideal or very realistic. I have some ideas for the future.

Spitballing here - would it be viable to have it connect to send PDC telexes? I wonder whether that could be developed as a plugin actually.

It seems to me at very this moment it will be better to send CPDLC messages to the radio channel (to the chat of radio frequency, but not private as it now)

CPDLC messages are currently sent as "radio" messages by default.

CPDLC.xml defines which messages are sent as private messages instead (for example, the Australia dataset sends PDC as private messages)
