> I'm in the process of implementing the DHL TrackIt API in order to display the tracking information of a package.  
> Facts:
> - DHL's API has the ability to query up to 25 air bill numbers per request.  Note that high volume/multiple calls are limited to 2,000 transactions/hour and only between 4PM and 4AM PST.  DHL will lock out the API to violators.  
> - Single airbill number tracking is allowed anytime and there doesn't appear to be any 
>  
> Feature Functionality:
> - The base DhlServices method will accept upto 25 airbill numbers and will return a List of Map objects that contains all of the details of the tracking.
> - The DhlServices.dhlShipmentTracking will accept one airbill number 
> - The viewTrackingInfo service will exist in a new common carriers class and act as a Command pattern accepting the airbill number and the carrier id.  It will call out to the appropriate carrier tracking service (presently DHL) and then display the appropriate data.
> - The link to view tracking will appear in the EditShipmentRouteSeg form and will POSSIBLY? display the information using a pop-up window.   
> - There is a boat load of data coming back from the DHL Tracking API.  I will need to refine this data and display the appropriate data.  Perhaps this data should be compared with the other carriers' data sets so that we can use a common display for all carriers.
