Is it ready? I tried to compile icecast 2.1.0 --enable-vorbis-updates but
nothing happend, that is how I got there...
I am a bash script programmer and I feel awful because I cannot help You.
I enjoy using icecast servers, but we have a problem (in my radio station) :
When the source is on the same machine that icecast server is, everything is
fine. But when The source is on other machine (even on the same LAN with server)
we got buffer every 2-3 minutes. We have to user shoutcast to broadcast because
of that. Did anyone experienced anything like that?

Sorry for shool english, I am from Poland.

As was mentioned, it's only on my branch which is like 2.1 with various
bits added.  My directory on mediacast1.com/~karl was out of action for
a while, looks to be down to a HD failure, but is up now.

you can also access SVN at 

svn.xiph.org/icecast/branches/kh/icecast

On a related note, in svn I have merged the 2 modules previously
mentioned so that the --enable-vorbis-updates switch is longer needed
now. The merge is new so I could of broken something but so far things
look fine, if you want the stream rebuilding to occur (which includes
the URL updates) then add  <ogg-rebuild>1</ogg-rebuild> to the
appropriate <mount>
