What's HCI stand for? I'm guessing it ends in "Connection Interface", but the H has me stumped. Happy? Hostile? Hysterical? Hippopotamus? If we're connecting a bluetooth compliant hippopotamus to Linux, I can only hope there's an RFC somewhere explaining how to do it. That's not the kind of thing you want to make up your own interface for. Especially since Alan Cox is entirely likely to get bored enough to try and implement it some day. The pigeons didn't stop him... Rob (I can just see Alan now, sneaking up on a hippopotamus with a blue magic marker to color its teeth with, and whatever tiny PDA he's managed to port Linux to by then. A wristwatch, probably. If Telsa is in the area, the question becomes "is it possible to crash a hippopotamus?) I need to go home now.
