Yay! Glad you all like it! :)

I propose that whenever someone finds some item particularly yummy,
and they start looking more closely into the issue, that they
nominally assign themselves to that item so that others would know
that someone is already working on it. (OK, that was unnecessarily
verbose, even if surprisingly precise, but I hope it's excusable given
that it's quite late here...)

Cheers,
Liviu
