Hello,
This discussion was thogowgly made sometime ago, with Andreas. If you
could point this guy to the list archives and put him in contact with
Andreas I do think his project can go much faster. It would be just a
kind of time loss if we start to discuss all this again if it is in
the list archives, and this topic was greatly discussed with several
of us giving feedback and opinions.
Thanks,
Marlon
