[NUT-devel] FINALIZE NUT SPEC!!

The info frames patch I just sent to nut-devel is the last withstanding 
problem I know of for NUT. libnut seeking has been rather heavily tested, 
even with EOR. We could still add (remove?) some fields for Info 
packets/frames, but that can be done after finalizing.

libnut/nututils is far from ready for production, but I think mpcf.txt 
_IS_.

Is there anything else? Is anyone displeased? (even Ivan is happy and 
stopped flaming! :)

Speak now or forever (or atleast until NUT 2.0 :) hold you peace...

(The spec could really use a cleaning up, but the bitstream is locked...)
