Hi!

Here are the accomplishments of the week, and the priorities for next
week:

Accomplishments:

* Many improvements to the NEP message creation and parsing routines.
* Improved client context management. 
* Added packet parsing logic to all classes of the PacketElement family.
* Written a complete packet matching engine. This is the part that 
  determines if a captured packet has been sent by a connected NEP client
  or is just some kind of noise at the server side. It also determines
  which specific client it belongs to, so it can be echoed to him.
* Make client and server send real NEP messages (instead of bogus 
  ASCII strings that were being sent for testing)
* Reviewed Nping's man page: a few typo and style fixes; some missing 
  documentation added; extended some sections and added a new one.
* Refactored normal probe mode code, encapsulating it in its own class.
* Started integration of the echo client and the probe engine.
* Fixed a few bugs.
* Had a meeting with Fyodor and scheduled the next one.


Priorities:

* Continue working on the echo client so it can do both, send probes 
  and receive echoed packets, at the same time.
* Work on packet diff.
* Produce a working prototype.

Regards,


Luis MartinGarcia.
