Tschechow, Artimage, and I all came to the same type of consensus this
morning on IRC (at least I believe we did, don't let me put words in your
mouths).

So I think we can say that 0.6.2 is not going to happen.  I think we could
waste a lot of time to try and get that working when we could spend it on
new stuff.  

I propose we shoot for the major goals listed for 0.7 in the Roadmap:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/mnet/mnet_new/doc/mnet_roadmap.html?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/html

And on April 15th see were we are (unsure what we'll do then if we haven't
gotten far,  perhaps become bitter? :)

My priorities go something like

1) detachable interface
		which is dependant on ...
			cp2pc interface
				which is dependant on ...
					ZNFF
						which is dependant on ...
							the python fec module

2) scripts for copying stuff in EGFABT filesystem to ZNFF filesystem

3) triple content tracker (unlimited types of attrib for files)

4) super smart cmd line publishing tools with metadata extraction 

5) twisted egtp 
		OR 
   achord via egtp
