My plan was to send you guys a zip with the source in it, but to remove 
it from CVS. As Tim says, removing stuff from CVS just moves it into 
the attic directory, it doesn't go for ever anyway. I think that will 
be ok.

At the moment I'm trying to track a weird bug where the SBHandler 
thread crashes in my BeMSN build, but not in my Bme build even though 
the network code is the same. Commenting out the color and font stuff 
seemed to help; I'll investigate a bit more. Hopefully have it done by 
the weekend.
