Talking about exalt... What is its current status? I found two versions, 
obviously different, at

svn://svn.berlios.de/exalt/trunk

and the other one in the e17 svn repository:

/e/trunk/PROTO/exalt

Is it supposed two work (because neither one is working for me; Fedora 9 
with NetworkManager)?

Thanks a lot and best regards,    

Nick.
