Replying to uwe:

So far it seems to have only been user requests. :( And the one developer who has a 440bx setup can't seem to find any time to work on it. I've outlined what needs to be done a few times.

Seriously, its in the top of my to do stack. But I'm a bit bandlimited still. Also complicated by the fact that I don't have all my previous tools handy anymore. It wont be until I get up to Boston that I can start aquiring new tools. So if nobody else steps up to the plate then I can hopfully get to this in January or 07.
