	Yes, it is still actively developed, albeit quite slowly. I am
the only active developer nowadays and I don't have much spare time to
devote to it (although I would *love* to have more).

	Nevertheless, remote connection is already in there. Go to
Options/Miscellaneous. There is a field there called "Comma-separated
list of nodes you have FCP access to". You just have to write the
desired IP address and port and off you go. Please note that FCP
communications are *NOT* encrypted, so tunnel that connection over SSL
or something like that if you want to be safe.

	Kind regards.
