Maybe we can collaborate and having just one «main» repo where peolple
may get the whole code? :)

Currently I'm still stuck into another projects but if you provide
patches against latest PPS release on my repo and/or patches to the
LKML in order to finish the PPS inclusion I can review them and trying
to push them into main line.

We should do the following steps:

1) Add clients support.

   I suppose using your parallel client can allow us to easily add
   this support.

2) Add serial support.

   I have to modify serial code as asked by Alan and then everything
   should goes well.

3) Add hardpps support.

   This can be done separately from the other steps.

3) Other minor patches...

Ciao,

Rodolfo
