Yeah, we realize that.  In our situation, we use this code internally 
which is why it exists.  Back in Aug 2007, we packaged it up and 
proposed it because we thought it would be useful to others.  Since 
then, we have submitted several versions.  Feedback was minimal.

In fact, only Tom has made suggestions, which we have taken into 
consideration and adjusted the spec accordingly.

We are interested in having a discussion about the beta-0.8a proposal 
and concept, not the implementation or submitting procedures.  We 
provided the code in case someone wants to take a test drive.

Andrew
