I have been happily chugging along whenever i have free time documenting the design that has been chosen for the node daemon. I finally have a usb-serial cable with which to connect to the efika so headless (with a wlan card) on-board testing of the software can be commenced.

All my current code is running off a usb key, for two reasons:
1. The old laptop hard-disk died on me losing a considerable amount of non-backed up test data and code as well.
2. It was a hassle pulling the hard-disk out each time i needed to perform a mass write/read operation

About the code, there is no real advantage of using either C or C++ over the other as they are both perfectly adequate for the purpose because well written code should perform well regardless of either language

cheers,
once more,
Denis
