The comment was not meant to be derogatory and I apologise if it sounded so. I didn't mean that Kushal did all the work for her, just that she is known to us as Kushal's girl-friend (that too because Kushal talks about her quite a lot on IRC & his blog). That is all. I apologise once again to Kushal and Ria if that sounded like I was pulling their legs.
