Uhhm, this is most probably not the best list for this support level. I had several attempts last year to solve this problem on several IRC channels, but none who could help me, so I wrote directly to the dev list. But forget that there is a user list, not for this special topic but for user matters as a whole. However, sorry for this mail into the wrong list.
