Yes, the latest is 1.1e and it includes the Telebit stuff plus other things
(support for Viking monitor, SHARED ports, etc.). Contact OXXI at (213)427-1227
for information on how to upgrade.

The next thing that will be implemented is a "roll your own protocol".
The standard for this is currently being worked on together with Willy
Langeveld. After this one is finalized, we should start working on
a "roll your own emulation" document. Diga! produced a similar feature,
though nobody ever implemented anything else besides what actually was 
shipped by Aegis (at least to my knowledge).
