	Yeah, you know, it strikes me -- we basically have an iSCSI-like 
implementation going from nothing to fairly complete, in what seems 
like no time.

	Pawel -- how long did it take you to do this?!?


	And speaking of iSCSI -- I'm curious to know what it might take 
to do iSCSI clients and servers based on the GEOM Gate work.  Could 
we make a quantum leap ahead of most of the rest of the field?
