If you're talking about SingleShare, that posting was a call for beta testers,
and an announcement.

Release of the first semi-real version is still about a month away.

BTW, there is an INIT but you don't actually need it. Launch the application,
publish a folder, and you're up and running.
The one major problem I have is that SingleShare needs the Desktop Manager.
Apple Germany doesn't even officially admit that it exists at all, and
therefore seems somewhat reluctant to let me license it for distribution.
