You are welcome to have a look at the descriptions of the three
patches posted by David Dillow. I was not credited in any way in these
descriptions. Not for analyzing the problem, not for the design of a
solution and not for the work I did in implementing a solution. That
is why I wrote that David Dillow was claiming authorship of the work I
did.
