Yes. I spent the weekend and most of today moving the old Xi protocol.ms to
docbook and putting the new requests/events in.

However, you may be up for some disappointment, most of the requests etc.
stay as they are, and low-level libXi is still a bit awkward to code against.
That said, the device handling is much better now.
