I'm all for Enet. I have used SDL_net in the past (well, tried to), and 
I wouldn't want to do it again :-). Plus, the rationale for enet given 
in its documentation (fast&unreliable message passing if you need it, 
optional reliable packets) sounds very good.

I've already integrated enet into my local copy of SDL, however I'm 
completely stuck as to how I import the enet source tree into CVS.
I'm trying to work with cvs import, but that wants some really strange 
parameters.
I just want to do some kind of recursive add, but that seems impossible.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
