I'm not a DD, but I checked it out anyway. Looks like it's mostly in order. I'm not good with libraries, so I can't give a "full" review, but it looks pretty darn clean. DEP5 and DEP3 are being used, quilt is nice, no lintian errors up to P, E, and I. I'm having a tough time picking anything out. Perhaps someone with more library experience then myself could review it. Well done, keep up the great work! -Paul P.S.
