Thanks for all these pointers! I am well aware and respectful of the open source philosophy, and please do not see a criticism toward the work of the developers in my e-mail... just a lost user seeking advice, wanting to understand what happened to catch the train I apparently missed during the last 6 months... I will sure have look to the current project and see if I can help. Thanks for this particular hint!
