@ torben, could you please provide a as clear as possible documentation
of the api?
Also documentation for devs who want to add support to there apps (I
think you did that already)?

It's nice that you are able to patch all these apps, but devs should do
be able to do it themselves easily too of course.

You see, I care about this becoming a success ;)

@ LAD devs, maybe it's good to release early and often? I mean it's nice
that you have gold in your svn's and git's, but when there is no release
it will take centuries to get this stuff in the different distro's.

Thanks in advance,

\R
