As far as I have read in this mailing list, the specifications of the
DriveWire protocol are available on the Cloud-9 website, and if I
understand from the Cloud-9 site, and the postings in this list, we
are free to develop DriveWire servers for whatever OS we want. It is
the client that is what is kept locked up a little and I respect that,
since not everyone has a Windows or Mac computer, which I believe are
the two server platforms supported out of Cloud-9.
