Thanks, nice to know someone appreciates it. Every one has their own
ideas about how it _should_ be done, so I expected I'd get flamed for
not pleasing everyone. OTOH it's been less than 24 hours since I posted

Several of us have started on this, and either run out of time, or

No. That will pull them off the vendor branch before we are ready for
