Hi Nicholas, Marcus, Tim and all who replied to my
original message.

Well, if Nicholas thinks its no problem then I
acknowledge I've picked the wrong example to complain
about.

And asking politely for something is always
appropriate. As long as the askee knows he can
decline.

Its a good way to get needed contributions.

Still I'm glad I wrote that all down. Some of the
discussion looks helpful.

If its possible to easily write an "Am-I-in-trouble."
Sunit test, Maybe someone could put up a page of
documentation and a template somewhere. To show us who
have to learn everything from scratch and usually the
hard way.

Consider this a polite request with a Please and Thank
you attached to it.

Tests are a very good idea.  Heaping work on a
newcomer without thinking of the effort being
requested is of concern to me.

I like Nicolas's quest for precision and order. I hope
his efforts are supported and his time contribution
appreciated.

I think some of my bug hunting frustrations got into
that last post.

Thanks for you attention.

Yours in service, -- Jerome Peace
