Great to hear this, however, I would like to warn everybody  (as an
original developer) that there are some protocol issues to be fixed
still, before serous advance could be achieved.

There is also an issue of clearly formulating goals - in my view remote

BTW, is it possible to set up mailing list to discuss this topic
specifically ?
