Looks good to me. Thanks for writing it up.

Apologies in advance for any misunderstandings or omissions from the discussion that crept in to this mail -- don't take this summary as ratified until this thread stops getting new replies.  :) Thanks! - Chris. -- Chris Ball   <<a href="mailto:cjb@laptop.org">cjb@laptop.org</a>> _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list <a href="mailto:Devel@lists.laptop.org">Devel@lists.laptop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel" target="_blank">http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel</a> </blockquote></div>
