does that mean open sourcing it? vmodem needs some serious work to be on the
public internet. i have vmodem partially reverse engineered .. it has a few
undocumented DosDevIOCtl calls to turn the emulated DCD, etc on and off and I
could really use the source to figure it out..

also, i thought that netlabs was already in talks with him? all of that code
is in assembly and they'd be able to maintain/improve it for ArcaOS, OS4, etc
