A couple other notes...

I'd be happy to have you write a formal spec for NUT once it's
complete, or to write up the spec of our API. But myself and the
others I'm working with won't be working on an API that's slow, that's
socket/IPC-based, or that encourages or allows proprietary software to
take advantage of our code.
