Hello all,

A new NG version  will be released soon with almost all the protocols
supported. We are also working on the win32 compatibility. So, things
are going on :)

However, I'd like to know your opinions about the C99 norm: should we
use some C99 features or not in libnet:

  [ ] Yes, use C99 as it brings many cool features for developpers
  [ ] No, dont use C99 as it is not supported by oldest compilers
      (VisualC6 for instance)


Mainly, the things I enjoy in C99:
  - the definition snprintf()
  - the format %zu when you want to print/scan size_t arguments
  - the variadic macros (marcos with variable number of arguments).

Thanks,

	Fred
