Hi Eduardo

Thanks for the patch, I've committed it to the trunk:

https://code.google.com/p/asciidoc/source/detail?r=7863b0a0ab0dc4f2b274fd0d72d5224869000337

After releasing 8.6.9 I posted these messages which relate to the issues
raised. I posted with subject 'AsciiDoc Development' and I've no idea
how they ended up in the 'LaTeX backend patches, round two' thread. I
copied and pasted them to this new thread:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/asciidoc/rBaT0NZxGiY

I'm all for moving to Github and reorganizing the development model,
problem is that I just don't have the time at the moment to do it.

BTW, loomio looks like a really nice tool.


Cheers, Stuart
