Hi Vincent,

after some hectic day of research and implementation I came to the point I have 
my things working as expected.

My experiences are good - I could found almost everything on the net but that 
information is very cluttered 
and that was the main difficulty for me to overcome.

Now I'm polishing my project but will create an example tutorial for the others 
as well.

Thanks,
Piotr
