Just an initial heads up, my understanding is that development on these
libraries is very slow right now, as the lead developer currently has only
intermittent 'net access, and no broadband, AFAIR.  In fact, my
understanding is that he doesn't expect to really get the bindings
completely up to snuff until late *2004*.  So, I wouldn't expect them to
change much between now and the 2.6 release.
