That makes me curious: As far as I know, almost all tcpip stack 
implementations are written in C so they can be used both in C and C++ 
(in this case, the lines around "#ifdef __cplusplus" at the top of the 
header files makes sure linkage is OK). What kind of wrappers do you mean?

Yeah well, it really _is_ experimental! I suppose you could use it to 
send a little data to a remote host on the same local net, but not much 
more... yet!
