Well I'm thinking about playing with the idea. My main business is  
programming and I offer hosting to those customers as an added bonus.  
I think the first version will simply be a USER0000 template...  
looking at the files tonight I'm hoping it won't take too long to  
figure out... now that I've located the developer docs for sausalito.

Now I've found a use for those old RaQ4's i've got sitting around.  
Upgrade to BlueQuartz and use them for testing!
