Thanks for the git repo pointer. I appreciate the opportunity to
look at the kinds of changes you have needed, and will see if I can
incorporate them into the next version of devotee I am (stalled on)

Hmm? The last vote I ran, I thought I was in sync between my git
version and the code that ran. Perhaps there have been changes made on
vote.d.o; I'll see if I can merge those back when I have time to work
