You can find it here: http://nbd.name/gitweb.cgi?p=uqmi.git;a=summary or git://nbd.name/uqmi.git. I think it can already do pretty much all that's necessary to bring up the connection like qmictl. The main difference is it's ~70 kb of code instead of multiple megabyte, and it also doesn't depend on GLib or other bloated libraries.
