True but my setup is a bit different its not a single app. I built an
Operating system specifically for HA and hence opensourcing it becomes
difficult but considering the number of liveCDs available these days I
guess I should have created one :shrugs:

Yeh and the xAP pages need more documentation, tarting up and if you're
serious about this framework, a collection of apps/ libraries (possibly
wrapping into a liveCD) needs releasing to sourceforge and wheres the
wikipedia xAP page ? :oooooooooooooo
