We have an implementation of the "timelord protocol", which consists of
one request and one response. We haven't made it available until now,
since we hadn't bothered to package it up. I will write a README for
it, and make it available. BTW, it can't be distributed with netatalk,
since the U Melbourne people claim they have a copyright on our
version, and their copyright is much more restrictive than our's.
