[hobbit] Current development plans

[lars ebeling]

Since the bb-client is running under this BTF-license, I would very much 
want a Hobbitclient.

I wish you all (that live where the summer is coming) a very nice summer and 
hope that the weather will be like it is just now here.  Clear blue sky and 
not to hot.

Regards
Lars
