I'm still waiting to upgrade AstLinux - trying to find the time :)

I saw the link to the HFSC script in the SVN commit message, went to the
website it referenced, downloaded the script and made a couple of
changes to hard code the interface etc.

I've found HFSC to be quite a bit better than HTB, and in reading about
the way it works I think it should work much better.

I did have a PHP script which reported usage based on bins but it was in
the /root/ directory and I restarted the box without copying it anywhere.

I was intending to post it, but will have to rewrite it. :)

I'll post back once I've made a CF for 0.5/0.6 - to tell you the truth
I'm quite keen to run a 1.4 branch on customer sites as we run 1.4 on
the exchanges and there's a few features I'd like to support from it.

Also, I'd like to have mISDN bedded in properly so we can finish a BRI
version using the Digium b410p.  We've had the CAD done for a BRI and
TDM400 box using the net5501 but haven't sent it out to manufacturing yet.
