The other version that was posted had support for modifying an existing flat tree, which I need for the wrapper code for prep. Are those Matt's changes? Are you thinking of adding that capability to your version? You can do this now with the ft_set_prop() function, which is what I'm using for Xen. At the moment that function isn't able to modify the size of a property, but Mark is going to adapt his code (which supports that). -- Hollis Blanchard IBM Linux Technology Center

On this subject, it's just been asked that the Xen library containing this code be relicensed as LGPL (instead of GPL). Panto, you're the original author of that code. Since we are trying to make a library, I think LGPL makes sense. Is relicensing OK with you?
