Hi,

We are working on releasing libdrizzle as a stand alone library alongside the 
release. IE you will be able to  download libdrizzle as a separate project if 
you just want it.

Right now we are working out a couple of kinks in the system, but I believe we 
will have this done shortly. 

Cheers,
        -Brian
