Ouch. I didn't expect that. In case you're interested in a summary paper on shim6, take a look at a newer version (at publication accepted):

It isn't as good as I'd have hoped, and describes a moving target, but it should give a hopefully short and relatively concise summary.

Unfortunately, it _doesn't_ describe how to solve the problems that Randy was referring to... :-)
