Also remember that on Mac, the binary format used by metacard has 
changed from CFM to Mach-O. The programming interface for externals is 
the same, I guess, but they will need to be recompiled to work on Rev 
2.0.

I remember reading Jeanne is working on some SDK tutorials and such. 
How is it coming? :-)
