Not all of these listed ar actually relevant -- see the other discussion
on that topic...

BTW, this is not really relavant to your application, but I guess I can
mention it nevertheless: Instead of first moving the existing translator
to libnetfs, and then working on the individual functionalities, it
might be a better idea to start with a libnetfs-based skeleton only
first, and move over individual functionalities one by one as you are
working on them... But that's just an idea to consider; I'm not even
sure it's really the best approach :-)

The remaining stuff I think we already have discussed in the other
thread :-)
