Hi, Joe.  Not at the moment.  Here's what's currently pending:

M apps/cmdline/ptal-pml.c
M include/ptal.h
M lib/ptal/ptal-hpjd.c
M lib/ptal/ptal.c
M lib/sane/hpoj.c
M scripts/ptal-init.in

(Other than ptal-init.in, mostly PML<->SNMP bug fixes, which may require
an additional small TBD change to ptal-hp.c and xojpanel.)

Thanks for noticing.  :-)

Sure, bring it on.

Sounds good to me.  I can test it on RedHat 6.2, 7.2, and FreeBSD 4.5,
as well as give it a look over for general saneness.

Thanks,
