Hi,
   I was around 1394 development when this got done. You're correct
that the project probably hasn't been touched in a long time. However
there are no other progams under Linux that do anything like that
program. It's probably best to contact the author and see if he'll
help and possibly to look for someone to take it over.

   I was on the 1394-devel list from August 1999 until last October.

Cheers,
Mark
