Well, it works just fine (well, as far as my own testing has shown). So what's remaining is mostly writing documentation for it (because the initial version is "simple" in features - requires command line parameters, and identical(*) configuration files for each player)
(*) well, Amiga model, accuracy, kick starts and disk files, etc must be identical, not the config itself.
There's a couple of extra things I would like to have done:
* add some version exchange information to the protocol/server, so when people actually start testing, the server ensures that everyone runs compatible versions (I don't want bogus bug reports ;-))
* Ideally, but not completely necessary: Have FS-UAE run checksums on kickstart, disk files (and possible also essential config values) and send to server to ensure that everyone runs compatible setups. Again mostly because I do not want bug reports which are caused by such incompatibilities.
Perhaps I get time to do it this weekend!

Never been to Australia yet, but I will hold you to that if I get there
Version 0.9.9beta2
combined changes since 0.9.8:
* Support hard disk files in RDB format (same config option as regular HDF files - RDB format is automatically recognized).
* Auto-grab input on mouse click.
* Click middle-mouse button to release input grab.
* Grabbing input on startup is optional (see example.conf).
* Keys are now "positionally" mapped (as far as possible) from host keyboard to amiga keys (some exceptions because of physically different layout: home = lparen, page up = rparen, delete = del, end = help, insert is mapped to the amiga key to the left of backspace, and page down to right amiga key in case the host keyboard has no right windows/apple/menu key).
* Make caps lock a proper toggle button.
* Scanline effect support (see example.conf).
* Added an application icon.
* Associate .fs-uae files with FS-UAE on Mac OS X.
* Support bsdsockets on Mac OS X / Linux (not Windows yet).
* Can override controller configurations by placing configs files in new FS-UAE/Controllers directory (+ option to configure this directory).
* New configuration option: audio/floppy_drive_volume
* New configuration option: paths/base_dir
* Ported updated caps code from WinUAE.
* New frame limiting logic in libfsemu.
* Use rawinput in Windows for keyboard support.
* Use some keyboard scancodes on other platforms to improve key mapping.
* NTSC mode added (see example.conf) -was really added in 0.9.8, but omitted from changelog.
