Also any pointers to the PDC protocol in terms of what attributes are sent from aircraft to ATC would be helpful

There is no support for requesting PDC in VATSIM's protocol. Are you talking about integrating with a third party package like Hoppie's network?

The funny thing is, in vpilot, you can mouse click to get a controllers details, start a private message session with a controller, or display ATIS.  These are all things you'd do during a low work vo

I thought PDC messages are sent as private messages 

I did look at Hoppi integration, is that what is mainly used for PDC by things like the A320 ?

I'd be happy to help with the testing of this. I fly VR with the Varjo Aero and additionally I'm a software engineer for some 20 years now, so I hopefully know what a test or bug report should look like. 😄

They are, but you were asking about requesting PDCs, not receiving them.

As a 100% VR user, this would definately be welcome, specifically for the nearby controller list and also messages through Vpilot.

Probably one of the reasons I don't go online as much as I used to. Looking forward to the release.

The private beta is now closed, we have one more release to go and then we will move into public beta, the tool will then be publically available to download .

I'll provide links in the near future

The VSR App does notwork anymore, I just get a blank window in VR. Will it work again or do we all need the next version after the next release?

There seems to be an issue with the OpenXR Toolkit. They are working in it… [mbucchia/OpenXR-Toolkit] Wip VRS rendering (PR #374)

Hey Michael, I just realized something tonight... if you aren't running the server, you'll get a blank screen in the sim.  By chance did you forget to start the VSR server?
