i stay tuned :-)

welllllll. thanks for the patch. as you can imagine, the main problem is
the testing. i can test the patch with my serveez installation here but
this one is rather boring... unfortunately there is no real test scenario
for serveez...

ela is a little bit reluctant to apply the patch since he doesnt have the
time to have a real look at it. i skipped over it and it looks okay to me 
(but this doesnt mean much).

let me suggest this: give me some time to test my installation here (i am
currently quite busy). in the meantime it would be cool if you would
extend the foo-server so that it uses as much of your code as
possible. alternativly you could also implement some other test case that
convinces us that your code doesnt introduce mean bugs.

if this all works well your patch will be applied, but dont hold your
breath :)

i hope this isnt too discouraging...
