This is an important point. Now I found the real words for this situation. Let me quote Douglas Adams' *The Restaurant at the End of the Universe:* "Transtellar Cruise Lines would like to apologize to passengers for the continuing delay to this flight. We are currently awaiting the loading of our complement of small lemon-soaked paper napkins for your comfort, refreshment and hygiene during the journey. Meanwhile we thank you for your patience. The cabin crew will shortly be serving coffee and biscuits again." [...] "Yes," said the voice again, "there has been a delay. Passengers are to be kept temporarily in suspended animation, for their comfort and convenience. Coffee and biscuits are being served every year, after which passengers are returned to suspended animation for their continued comfort and convenience. Departure will take place when the flight stores are complete. We apologize for the delay." This is how he decribes a 900 year delay of a regular spaceflight. Sometimes I feel that forcing users of Pywikibot to make exotic updates for BS when they only want to use basic tools is this kind of case. Excuse me for that. I have already run this exe, this philosophical detour is for future only.
