Hello,

I think I've got all of the protocol issues sorted out as 
good as they'll probably get.  I can't get the exact file 
permissions from the get-file requests -- it only lets me 
know which ones are executable.  Setting executables to 
0755 and non-executables to 0644 would work for all files 
in my copy of /usr/src except for 
/usr/src/usr.bin/lex/mkskel.sh (0744) and 
/usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/tkpkg (0754).  Since they're 
both executable for root, unless there's an issue, we 
could probably let it slide and assign them 0755 
permissions.

All I have left at this point is to add support for 
command line configuration options, add comments, tidy 
everything up, get it to conform to the "man style" 
guidelines and test it against a remote repository.
