I tried it out a while back; couldn't get it to compile, probably due
to there being a bit too much 'bleeding' to the 'bleeding edge.'

It looks as though it could be pretty interesting, if PG support

How's the cross-platform support? Aubit would be an easier sell, to
be sure, if it is readily deployable on Those Other Platforms, too...
