Rgr.  Whatever gets it to a single distribution point that's
reliable long-term.

Agreed.  What Ken's (n7ipb) working on allows web-based
configuration...  That'd be a whole lot easier for new users
wouldn't it?  ;-)

He's not implementing it for ROSE or Net/Rom but has the basic AX.25
stuff working for embedded systems.  He mentioned it was
distribution-agnostic.  With a few extra bits for ax25d and axspawn
and others, it could be the impetus for a whole lot shorter
AX25.HOWTO document/a lot fewer user setup problems.
