I'm adding Ethernet and TCP/IP support to my next generation tracker/TNC. Supporting AGWPE's TCP protocol seems like a straightforward way to allow compatibility with existing programs, so they can use a network-connected TNC. It never occurred to me that this might be seen as an intellectual property issue, particularly if the individual authors have implemented the interface themselves. I also don't see it as competing with AGWPE / PEPro.<br>
<br>
If this is really going to be a problem, though, maybe it's time to start working on an open protocol specification for remote TNC access.<br>

Hi<br>
<br>
The protocol is published to help others communicate with AGWPE not to<br>
emulate AGWPE!!!<br>
<br>
It’s really very disappointing to see your program be hacked.<br>
<br>
Thank you for the support!<br>
