But I am not directly involved with the effort (well, not even indirectly) and I do not know if there is a timeline for release etc. The source of this information is relatively credible, though (people from the core-team) I just hope that the reason they don't release the specifications for writing these utilities (as opposed to releasing the source) is not that the source is the only documentation ;-) cheers, Rainer cheers, Rainer
