Entirely possible that I'm making this up. Hey, I'm narced from spending
more than 4 hours sub-surface today :-)

I thought we discussed why the dive duration with the Uemis wasn't as you
expected it to be... either way, maybe I changed the actual code based on
your feedback, I'd have to dig in the git log to remind myself what
exactly happened here.

Excellent.

Yes, it's a big code base by now. It takes a while to get used to it.
And frankly, there are many developers here who are quite familiar in one
part and completely at a loss in many other parts.

I maintain this project and can't claim that I fully understand the XSLT
transformations or the inner workings of our model/view stuff and quite a
few other areas of the code.

I found your Uemis code extremely useful. When in doubt, ask. Linus and I
have written a good chunk of the inner workings of the code (the old C
part that deals with a lot of the stuff you ask about) and we'll be happy
to help.
