Doug,

One minor mistake.

In slide 22, you have

    PutPacket( svContext, packet );

Much as I would like to see it stay this way
(I believe this use model will be most of the cases
for C-to-SV calls), if I understand correctly
the way we left things was to do it like this:

     svSetContext( svContext );
     PutPacket( packet );

Am I understanding our discussions correctly ?
