I wish that FTP would distribute a brief ASCII description of its lowest
API so it could be used as a reference model.
You can't describe our API "briefly" and make it possible for someone else
to implement from. I don't mind letting the world use our model, but
my support people would kill me if they started getting calls about
applications developed on something that wasn't quite compatible with
our kernel. We have some specific test programs, but I'd feel much
more comfortable if the knock-off API was tested with our full suite,
which needs not only the basic product, but NETBIOS, Interdrive and the
libraries as well.
