Sean,

Let's get the easy stuff into orcallator.se that we can now on an 
interface total basis, not the per port stuff.  This would be good just 
to make some progress.

Do you still need to get the Subversion access worked out?

Yes.

So no number of bytes sent or received?  Odd.

Great.  Let's get that code into orcallator.se soon.

I'm trying to get some forward motion here without me being involved in 
all the work :)
