This package includes support for Genders, HTTP devices and Curses user interface. Side notes: - I'm in touch with the upstream maintainer (Jim Garlick), - a new release is scheduled with some fixes planned, following my recent audit, - a client library (libpowerman) will soon be available, to allow the remote manipulation of a Powerman daemon, - an integration of this library is underway in the Network UPS Tools. cheers, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix Expert R&D - MGE Office Protection Systems - http://www.mgeops.com Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org/ Debian Developer - http://people.debian.org/~aquette/ Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.free.fr/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
