you might not wanna hear it, but the DUN profile is deprecated (even by
the Bluetooth SIG). However to integrate it into your bridge you need to
play some tricks with pppd. It is all about pppd and this is not going
to be very easy.

Since this is open source, feel free to do something about it. Write
documentation. I invite everybody to construct a good manual.
