No, just this thread of e-mails.
What I'm suggesting is simply a set of alternative functions to ip2long()
and crc32() that return consistent values on all platforms, e.g. 32-bit
signed integer values - a couple of new functions and a couple of quick
updates to the documentation explaining why you might want to use them,
that's all.
