Changes

Source code has been moved to Mohawksoft.Org's CVS repository.
Velleman K8055 USB Data Acquisition card has replaced the K8000 I2C card.
As part of the implementation of the K8055 interface, a usbdevice object was added to the standard devices.
A networked joystick interface has been added. The robot program implements a "netstick" client and the program "joysend" implements a netstick sender. It has currently been tested using a Logitech Dual Action joystick and seems to work. There is a keep alive pulse which, if lost, will cause the robot to hard stop.
Active
Yes it is *active* but it is not my day job. Anyone who wants to contribute is welcome. When I get some time, some basic automated motion is next.
