Speaking of Contiki, I keep seeing references to it on the web as it being 
an Operating System, and not necessarily an internet application.  I wonder 
how hard it would be to just strip the Contiki source code for what it's 
worth "internet-wise" and just move those routines into existing programs 
we have for DiskBASIC and OS-9/NitrOS-9?  That's an awful lot of luggage to 
tote around with the TCP/IP stuff we're really after. :)
