 The server binary has only 16k compared to 61k client binary, and I
dislike the idea of the overhead for this small packages.  Beside that,
I don't think that I will provide an init.d script for it neither,
doesn't make much sense IMNSHO.

 I talked with fabbione a little bit about it, maybe I will leave out
the tetrinet-server binary completely, it doesn't offer anything fancy
anyway so people who like to have their own server running should rather
use tetrinetx.

 If I leave it out I might consider naming the package tetrinet-client
as a whole (for the binary -- I guess I'll stick with tetrinet for the
source package).

 I am wait for a reaction from upstream too currently. I will consider
his ideas on the topic, too.

 So long, and thanks for the input.
