Hi Sam, hi all! :-)

Caolan, I felt free to add you as well ...

That sounds wonderful ... and since I lack any C++ programming skills,
your knowledge simply adds 100%. And that's a good start, isn't it?

Yep - along with some of the (hopefully more trivial) tweaks I've
mentioned in an earlier mail (names for the buttons, caption, ...). If
you consider it helpful, I will collect these proposals on a wiki page
(whiteboard section within the Design Team). What do you think?

@ Caolán: Thanks for pushing the patch ... since you've mentioned that
some changes might be "a little bit trickier", may we ask you for help
if we "run out of water"?

> Thanks for your help, Christoph!

Wow, I think it's the other way round. You do make some more users
happy!

Cheers,
Christoph
