I find this in the .diff.gz:

See above.


> Friendly,

Could you please re-read your mail? I don't consider it friendly at all.
You talk about 
      * "tons of diffs" - i see two.
      * you talk about "crap" - that's not very nice.
      * you say that the package is not "elegant in any way".

I *do* want to cooperate, but you don't give a single advice or any help
to make the package suit you better.

Please let us make the conversation problem- or even better
goal-oriented.

Thanks a lot,
 Daniel
