I'll probably get to it sooner or later if no one else jumps on it.

You doubt yourself too much ;) Some one with fewer inhibitions you mean!

Anyhow, just thought I'd add that I like this series very much.
It's a nice interesting use of the infrastructures. Good to see people
are getting more adventurous all the time.

Also always nice when someone else picks up a patch I dropped years ago
and does the remaining hard work to get it in ;)

There is a limited window left obviously if we want to adjust that ABI
so shout soon or it'll be there for ever *muhahahaha*
