I think I've fixed most (if not all) of the _writes_  in 1.7.  I
plan to work on the _reads_ (which I considered a bit less important)
in the next version.  The whole thing is complicated by the fact
that I can't actually run the enforcer myself - it doesn't grok my
'030 card, through no fault of the program itself.  I have to
fix the enforcer problems by sending someone a binary, having them
report what happens, and then trying to guess what broken.  Its a
bit of a pain, but I'm working on it... :-)

As for 2.0 support, there is a little there now, but it'll get better
as soon as 1) C= releases 2.0 for 2000s, and 2) there is some
documentation available to non-developers on how to use the 2.0
calls.
