Forgive my ignorance here. Does the library need to be initialized (beyond base initialization)? If so, what is the function (I can only find the deprecated/obsolete function). I probably should have stated this earlier: I'm using 2.0.21-stable. Another question (if you'll forgive the transgression): what is the official email address for the list? I noticed two are in play (freehaven.net and seul.org).
