I'm deeply impressed by the stuff you guys are dealing with at Christmas
Eve. ;-) While my family is not as tolerant to let me put those topics
on the table I'd be really happy if some of you could send a bug report
with the patch to BTS. I admit I would need to do some reading about
Perl first to understand your discussion fully and we would definitely
save time if you do not wait on me. :-)
Kind regards - and it is really fun to have "another technical family"
so I wish you a merry Christmas as well
Andreas.
