Lars -

Have you been getting any response to your request for other OpenHPI folks to 
test out your new simulator?  I must admit that I have not had time to try it 
out - however, I should have some time available next week to give it a 
shakedown.

I would like to have at least three people try it out prior to making a 
decision on merging it into the main OpenHPI trunk.

We are still targeting a the 2.15.0 release of OpenHPI around the end of June 
2010.  It would be nice to get a decision on the new simulator as soon as 
possible - so that any issues related to the merge could be resolved prior to 
the beginning of the release procedures.

Any volunteers to test out the new simulator?

> Installation:
> --------------
> You can get the new simulator by calling

> https://openhpi.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openhpi/branches/n
> ewsimulaor
> newsimulator
>
> The installation and compilation process is the same as for
> the openhpid.
> The plugin must be enabled by changing the openhpi.conf file.
> If you already have work with the new simulator, please be
