I rewrote this page a year or so ago but I think I dropped the patch due to lack of developer input. If you give me 12 hours I will send it out for your consideration. I would send it sooner, but I accidentally cut the fiber-optic cable with a shovel last night, so we all need to wait until this afternoon for AT&T to replace it.
