Well, I just moved to Zurich 3 weeks ago, and started my job at Google
one week ago. So I'm very, very, very, very busy. All of my belongs are
packed in a create in a warehouse somewhere in the US awaiting shipment
to Europe. So I have my little laptop and some clothes, but that's about
it. I don't have my machines, or my harmony, so I lack the tools to
write harmony code (at least well, anyway).

I'll be getting my stuff in July...

OK, I will review this code in time, but it's a lot of code, and I'm
just painfully busy right now, so please be patient. I can tell you that
I'd like to see the functional changes you added to congruity (skip
buttons, retry, etc.) added to concordance. It's our primary client, and
more importantly, it's the client that serves as a testbed for
libconcord. It should always exercise and provide the superset of
features. Of course, I don't block a merge on just that (well, not in
this case, perhaps in an extreme case) - but it's important to me to see
that stuff in general.

Sounds cool. As for libIRremotes and the handling of it (who owns it,
where it's checked in, and all that stuff), let me get a handle on the
code before I make any suggestions so I can make more informed suggestions.

Thanks for all the work here, this is great (from the overview - as I
said, I haven't really looked at the code yet).
