Clean meaning working, yes, but not complete, I still have to add the
Archieving stuff. And reg. licensing, since it uses some code fragments
from pilot-link it's GPL'ed. 3Com should not be able to kill it by saying
"paraphrasing" enough times, since I've never looked at their SDK.

Thats true, but at using an approach, since people have probably gotten
used to it, and we like it :-). While you're at it, if you'd like to hack
the makefiles so it doesn't good looking and linking with god knows what
(esd and friends), please do.
