The reason for my new release of the irda-utils was because the Mandrake
distribution wanted to include it in their new release (6.1?). What we have
to do is to make sure it's easy to make RPM's from it, which should be a lot
easier with all the help I've got from Mandrake.
PS. If Mandrake becomes IrDA ready, then I'll switch from RH ;-)
