Also, the server side code doesn't use glib for anything - the glib dependency has been avoided on purpose. (I don't know or remember the details why Lennart has been avoiding glib - is it only to keep the amount of dependencies low, or are there some other reasons why PA shouldn't use glib.) -- Tanu
