Oh, Seth. I was just jokin'!!! I know you did a great job and really
appreciate it! So, if you got me wrong, sorry and I'd like to say - I guess
for everyone hagin' around on the mlist - thanks a lot! And remember: You
don't suck! :-)
Sure, I also wrote a buildsys for me and my devels and I had 2 or 3
prototypes that I throwed away, after they worked, because I saw problems of
all kinds - I guess we experienced similar problems...
Best,
Oliver
