There have been so many requests for access to the code other than CVS that I will go ahead and release a pre-alpha version in a matter of days. Most of the bugs are worked out except for two that do not appear to be my code but rather somewhere between Qt and MySQL. As soon as I have that nailed, I release the code. I am hoping to release a real version in late October. For all kinds of good reasons, that date may move forward or back. I'm doing an increasing number of demos. These take time but are beginning to bring in some corporate sponsorship. Astaro has been the first to commit funding (besides Nexus and myself). We're also working on some major grant applications to fund the project and that continues to take a lot of time. On the other hand, we have just had an outstanding database expert volunteer 20-25 hours per week to the project. We'll see where it all comes out. If anyone else is interesting in helping, please let me know. We need experts in iptables, iproute2, *swan, Qt, user authentication, layer 2 Linux configuration and embedded Linux.
