Hi Marcel,

I wrote the skeleton of the library. Please verify if I am following
the BlueZ principles. I will try reuse functions used by pand 
and hcitool: connect, disconnect, search, ...

It is only a initial draft. The idea is provide a library to user 
mode application controls bluetooth connections. Please
validate my suggestions before I start coding.

The code is attached.

The following changes were done:
1. Makefile.am
    added libpanz in the SUBDIR
2. configure.in
    added libpanz/Makefile in the AC_OUTPUT
3. Added libpanz directory
   the files are in libpanz.tar.gz file

There is a lot of chalenges until I reach my objective: integrate
with a DBUS application.

Regards,
Claudio.
