        First proof that the meet-a-thon was successful. Waiting for more

        That's the idea in all. To get 75% of code right before the compiler
finishes.

        Helping you help yourself is our job !. And I'll provide help and
will work on the runtime calls if you need them in short notice.

        yes, these classes are the easiest to start on -- just imagine
that Sockets work. Also ECMA spec is your best friend. I think we'll
publish a csdoc2html'd file and link it to the status page to ease up
your work. Also let me know when you finish each method. I'll mark it
on the status page (from now on).

        Rhys: anyway we can generate the status page from the sources ?

        Yes, we really need help with all those structs in sockets. But
IIRC, some one is working on the calls. Maybe you could team up after
the Web classes are done. (team work pays !).

        And you've taken the first step.

        Rhys is the official admin /last word on Pnetlib. But I think
he'll be more than happy to have you work on it.

        Your work reminds me of Rhys's blitzkrieg 5000 line a week style.
Seems like Rhys has competition ?.
