I most certainly did NOT use code from that project.  I rolled my own,
thank you very much.  Take a look at that project.  It's over 600k.
AAL is 36k.  I wrote my own implementation of ProtoBuf to pull this
off, and that is no small undertaking.  I did initially consider using
that project, but came to the conclusion fairly quickly that it was
just too fat.  There is not a single piece of code from that project
in AAL.
