Okay. I'll gladly accept whatever positive interpretation someone

Umm.. If you read the original post, I already *had* submitted a
patch. About two weeks ago. There is no evidence that it's been looked
at. But that's often the way things happen with large projects,
volunteers, and/or minimal resources.

My custom which I think is shared by many other programmers is to
submit a smallish patch, and see how that goes. If it is received
well, then others follow if not, then not.

In the two weeks of nonaction of that patch, I've gone much further at
least to my satisfaction, by working on my own.  (Actually if you look
closely you'll see that I made 3 revisions of the patch. And there
still was a small bug that I've fixed recently in releasing the pydb
package.)

Hmmm. You seem to understand this side of things far better newbe me. Hey,
how about if you do that? Thanks!
