Hi there!

I just uploaded a new version of my flavour of caprice to=20
http://www.fresco.org/~tobias/

This version can now send data via sockets. It should even do proper byte=20
order conversion (LE on the wire) for the packet headers.

In the tarball you will find a "fresco" directory with only a caprice and=20
prague subdirectory. All other stuff will get re-added once I need it;-)=20
Prague is severely trimmed down too (only the two new headers I need for=20
caprice are there and the environment functions), but what is there is=20
covered by tests.

CHANGES:
  * Use netxx for the sockets.

  * Use automake: This simplyfies the build system quite a bit.

  * Use dejagnu instead of fresco-test: This removes some lines of code from
    which are not fundamental to what we are doing and never were finished.

TODO:
  * The Server does not yet discover Caps in its clients. This severely lim=
its
    the use. Fixing this issue in a secure way is the top priority for the
    next version.

  * Use a pseudo random number generator to not drain the entropy pool for =
all
    applications (at least not that fast;-)

I hope you like it;-)
