Unfortunately, the developer of our PPP stack has left the project (and 
computers) for personal reasons. But he agreed to help out with any 
questions we might have, so I'll give you his address privately. But 
since he probably won't fix any bugs in that code, it wouldn't hurt to 
tell us the problem you found, so that one day, someone that has a look 
at his code can fix that (we even have a bug tracker for these things :
-)).

We have a networking related list which would be more appropriate, but 
this list will do as well.

It might not be easy to find, but it's not really deeply hidden: 
Experience/Resources -> the first paragraph on the top. But anyway, 
thanks for finding it and reporting it!

Bye,
