Hi Angela,

sorry for not replying earlier, which doesn't mean that I'm considering your
issue.

consolidation...

a powercom patch has recently been submitted, and I had to first discuss
with the submitter about the possible fix of your issue with this patch:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsdev/2011-May/005408.html

so, this seems quite positive for you, though the validation will come once
the patch is merged, and tested on your side...

note that the patch is there:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsdev/2011-April/005402.html

cheers,
Arnaud
