And, I started wondering if comms is the right category for this software. Yes, it is related to communications, but as I look at other stuff in the comms category, I somehow feel that this port belongs in some other category. Something called plor which deals with soup and qwk packets is in the news category (I don't know why news, though). Well, I don't know, comms might be the correct one. Maybe Satoshi should decide.
