*-Add calls to remotio

 -Write more meat into the pseudo-code main() to pull everything together

 -Write a stub for getting info from the tarball/validifying the tarball. Read distren-job.xml, a file in the tarball, to find out 1. which rendering system to use (that system, e.g. blender/povray, can read more specifics, such as name of file to pass to blender and frames. Options common between different systems will be handled in common as best as possible)

 -Write a stub for publishing file and constructing job description so that the job can be shared

*-Other XML-writing/reading such as current stats / jobs / data / etc, xml writing for job creation, ...

*-charsets: the program should operate in UTF-8. This is partially required by libxml2's (and XML's) usage of UTF-8. We want the program's internal charset to be UTF-8 and figure out if we need w_char/whatever to fulfill UTF-8. I don't believe we do... mabye we just need a declaration that al data stored must be in UTF-8 format.
