It's great to see Henrik responding to messages (greetings!).  I was 
certainly hoping that he would pick up development at some point, but as 
time went on it seemed more and more unlikely.  I had thought of 
broaching this subject myself some time ago, but I got a new job and my 
bandwidth is now pretty much all sucked up there.

For those in the group that may not know... I wrote the back-end code 
for the System z operating systems (z/OS, z/VM and z/VSE).  So, if you 
see that indicated in the source, it's my fault...  :)  I still owe TJ 
wiki entries...  :(

There's not much I plan to add to the clients at this point (which I 
also wrote), so as long as the client backend protocol doesn't change 
"we're all good", as they say.

I'm glad to see this renewed activity.
