Very cool stuff! I was wondering what had happened to dogma attributes in CREST, as it had been talked about some time ago.
I'm also very happy to see replacements for in-game-browser functionality being realized. We knew this was part of your goal, but seeing character location implemented is still very good to see.
Thanks, as always, for your work in this area of the game's code! The API and CREST are integral parts of the game's experience.

A bit of a hail mary, but random unsolicited annoying feature request -- could the last X entries in the fleet log also be part of this information? Specifically, I'm looking for the loot log. (When a fleet member loots something, the act is visible in a log over the entire fleet.)
My eventual goal here is to create a situation where we can write an application to track mining fleets. A fleet boss would expose his fleet to a CREST-backed application, and then the application tracks who mines what, and calculates a raw ISK payout to be distributed by the boss (potentially shared amongst haulers and boosters, etc.) To do this, I'd also need for the action of mining to be printed in the loot log, which isn't happening currently. That being said, I'm guessing that such an addition to the fleet log isn't something you, specifically, do for the codebase (just based on your previous devlogs and what they generally involve,) so I suspect I'll have to suggest that later at a more appropriate time.
I am not sure how the fleet's loot log is handled, internally -- if it's written to a persistent storage mechanism or if it's just an ephemeral broadcast. Hence, hail mary.
