Yes, I can test on trunk or on a patched version, but I cannot shut down
or restart this particular UPS during the day. Hopefully we won't need
to do that to figure out the Report 89 / Report 90 stuff.
Would you like me to run off of stable or devel? Also, can I check out
stable with subversion/git, or should I just download it manually?
