Sorry, my sincerest apologies, that didn't quite come out the way I
meant it :)  When I said worst, I wasn't referring to your intentions.
Nor was I referring to bad design.  I acknowledge that you do a great
amount of good work with sync-engine etc.  In fact, if it wasn't for
your help debugging some of my issues I wouldn't have any sort of
syncing working now.

Anyway, "you're the worst" is perhaps not so tongue in cheek elsewhere
than in Australia.  I simply meant that most upgrade requirements (that
I've discovered so far) are a result of sync-engine changes.  Again,
this isn't bad, it probably reflects the huge amount of work that you've
done on sync engine.

Absolutely!  From looking at your changelog I can get pretty much all
the information I need.  And I appreciate the major update warnings that
you've posted on line.

So sorry if that was harsh.  Next time it's late at night I'll make sure
to proof-read my emails better :(  I look forward to the upcoming work
you have been talking about recently.
