It's time for netconf again. Yay!

First, I'd like to invite those who're on IRC anyway onto
#netconf/irc.debian.org for quick discussions and instant fun.

Second, while I am not quite ready for an outlook of what I am
planning to do until the end of this month, my goals are:

  1. consider xml-rpc or dbus for the control socket and switch
     netconf to it. (see
     http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/netconf-devel/2008-January/000203.html)

  2. implement all requirements (R) on the roadmap:
     http://git.debian.org/?p=netconf/netconf.git;a=blob;f=doc/roadmap-1.0.txt;hb=HEAD

  3. prepare the LCA talk and head off.

If you're interested in contributing and coding along, please let me
know so we can get in sync.

Cheers,
