That's OK.

Yes, it was quite a good talk. Very interesting and I think the
smbclient library will make integrating the SMB protocol in Unix
applications much easier than it was before.

I wasn't taking Alex to task. I think I should assume that you are under
a lot of work pressure and have misinterpreted what I said. I was
indirectly trying to say to Alex that I think it would be appropriate to
time-table a talk on this subject. I can't for the life of me interpret
what I said as taking Alex to task.

It appears on the tips page. I have submitted another tip about
continuing an ftp transaction but it hasn't been put onto the web-site
yet.

Yes, it is. I have offered to do at least one talk, and possibly more
than one. If I recall correctly, I offered to do a presentation on
DocBook and one "hands on" kernel rebuild. If you listen carefully over
the next three days someone else and me are about to offer to take on a
rather time consuming, volunteer task...

I honestly do not know where you are coming from.
