Yes, we decided to develop coldsync as an inetd daemon and not as
a standalone daemon because we thought it was a more stable
solution for a 24x7 use. 

The only thing that prevented coldsync 2.2.5 to work with inetd was
a missing if()statement and not a protocol one. yes, maybe the lack
of documentation too...

I think coldsync will be declared stable in a few weeks, if this makes any sense...
on the contrary, coldsync 2.2.5, has a lot of bugs in other parts of the
code.

the cvs version has a lot of cool new features like more headers available
to conduits, an improved SPC.pm, a VFS.pm, support for auto-initialization of devices,
faster download of dbs list and a better error reporting.
