Possibly, but no one is currently working on it, so it's a bit hard to say for sure. I have an interest in it for both of my companies (TeraSolutions - bigger servers for our customers, and Download Technologies - to lower our infrustructure costs so that we can continue to be the low price/ premium file hosting service leader), so there's a chance that I may do this work myself at some point in the medium-term. -DG David Greenman Co-founder, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org President, TeraSolutions, Inc. - http://www.terasolutions.com President, Download Technologies, Inc. - http://www.downloadtech.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.
