Hi Daniele, 

I'm one of the elks develpers of sorts.  Alan forwarded your mail to the

That's great, why don't you send what you've done as an attachment to
the elks list, or put it on a web page if it's quite large.

This may take a bit of time as a sourceforge developer, but I highly
recommend you join the mailing list if you are not on it already.

To subscribe to the ELKS mailing list, send an email to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org containing the words...

	subscribe linux-8086

...in the body of the email. The subject line is ignored.

I'm sure someone with commit access will do it some time, or check out
the elksweb tree, add your news, create a diff and send a patch to the
list :)  That way people don't have to think about things...

Excellent, it's probably worth joining the mailing list and Âending a
link to your current work.

I suggest you also have a look at the work being done by neil holmes
which hasn't moved onto the main site yet.
