Re: Is this project dead?

Hey!

I'm changing job too :p

I'll be busy as always... so perhaps on summer i can investigate more
heh, but at least i won't work on saturdays.

About the usb networking i saw in an Intel document some kind of
specification that could work, but i don't know where to put the code
and so... :(

Let's see if there's some more people involved in the project so it can
progress :p
