Hi Joep,

Unfortunately, testing a library or another depends on an immediate
need of a user. Many don't have the required hardware or time, or
health but that don't mean is not useful for someone.

Because my interest in data logging and renewable energy I needed some
libraries for a temp. sensor, a real time clock, LCD, and so on.
Until I was able to acquire the required hardware (EVB4.3 v.4) I
wasn't able to decide which component I want/must use. Those
components are:
- PCF8583 (I don't have time and health but I want to make it working)
- TSOP4843 (I used it in Arduino language)
- DS18B20 - used it in JAL thanks to V.Surducan and Bert (and And-
Tech.pl)
- LCD 2x16 - already used in JAL thanks to Jallib team and V.Surducan
- LED 4x7 segment - already used thanks to Jallib team (I enjoyed this
one)
-  AT24C02 EEPROM - not needed yet, but I have it.
- MMC/SD card - this one must be solved because I am one of the
"logger" guys and we depend on a really working append function.
- and so on...

As a JAL and Jallib user, I collect the entire package, even if I
don't need immediately all "things" included there, in the HOPE that
it will be useful to me (or others) some day.  But I try to voice not
only my requests, but also my successful attempts and gratitude. Yes,
I also can observe that considering this, it is a little quiet around
here...

And more to the subject. You said you reverted your modifications...
why you didn't immortalized them? How? Posting them on a HTML page
with your way of work, explaining how and why are useful for you. This
is a very precious "thing". Don't expect an immediate feedback or
acceptance. Do anything for future because is about knowledge and a
personal way (which can fit also to others which maybe are not yet
born) of doing things - you are a teacher if I understood well so, you
understand what I want to say.
