DO, DO sign onto BIX and check the last couple hundred (sorry) messages
in amiga.dev/main.  There has been a lengthy discussion there of how to do
this (initially engendered by rsimonson of microbotics).  Also, there
are some messages in suggestions and maybe bugs in amiga.dev.  The best
way to find these would be to search for the word serial in the last 200
messages in each and follow the threads from there.  I have posted maybe 
100-200 lines about it that I'm NOT going to dig up again.

If you talk to bart@amiga, tell him to check it out on bix (he usually doesn't
use BIX (if ever)).  Or have him call andy finkel, who I think has been
following it.
