While the NAR-plugin itself is a great piece of software, everybody should 
recognize that its usage is on its own risk. The biggest drawback of the 
NAR-plugin is the nearly not existing user support. The only way to interact 
with the developers is a formum where questions reside often simply unanswered.

Wished the NAR-plugin is here at Apache or at least at Mojo ...
