not really integrable yet, but I wanted to show you and the list anyway
- maybe someone has some opinion about the direction this is taking,
file names and the like.. What I have done is to move the network-client
code into the RRDTool tree, called `src/rrd_client.[ch]'. It implements
three publicly available functions:
- rrdc_connect
- rrdc_update
- rrdc_disconnect

`src/rrd_update.c' has been updated to know the --[no]cache and --daemon
arguments as outlined in my previous mail. The rrdupdate(1) manpage has
been updated to document the new options.

You can get the patch against the current trunk (revision 1436) from:
<http://verplant.org/temp/rrdtool-trunk-rrd_update_with_cache.patch>

My next steps will be:
- Pull the daemon into the RRDTool package. Is `RRDd' still a good name
  or should I rename it to `rrdtoold'? Or something completely
  different?
- Implement a `flush' command in the daemon and in `src/rrd_client.[ch]'
  and have affected commands (graph, flush, ...) use it.

As always, any feedback welcome :)
