What is this, slashdot?  :-)

Two things:

1. Just because we have development agreements with Red Hat doesn't mean
that they necessarily want or are willing to do the work.
2. Regardless of what non-Mwave group did the work, they would still be
dependent on the ex-Mwave team for knowledge dumps, technical assistance,
etc. That would defeat the purpose of farming it out to non-Mwavers. In
that case, we'd probably be better off doing ourselves.

The ACP Modem issue is alive within IBM. That is all I am really able to
say for now.

Now *that* is a good idea...

One way or another this issue can be resolved if only IBM would get their
finger out
