For the switch to guile the middle version number should be bounced, so
that serveez 0.1.0 is the first guile version. the change is signifficant
enough to reflect in the version.

I'll try to find docs on ipv6. i think the programming schema will be
basically the same (at least for streams and datagrams). AF_INET is
AF_INET6 and the structs will become larger, i think. mmh... gotta
recompile my kernel to include ipv6. i wonder how many applications using
it are there...

bye for now
