	Wow.

	Ok - so, one thing that is helpful is: if you use a script - can you
post the script instead of a patch ? :-) that way we save a lot of
reviewer time.

	Thanks, reviewing some of the smaller ones now :-) not all of the
conditionally compiled out code is useless, some of the in-line tests
are perhaps useful to keep (for now) until we have a good unit test
framework. I've pushed base, libs-extern, impress, bootstrap and still
working ...

	Certainly ! much appreciated. It'd be great to move up the hirearchy of
'easiness' though - the goal of the easy tasks is only secondarily to
make the code prettier, primarily it is to get people building,
contributing, and get stuck into the code :-) ie. if we wrote a single
script that fixed all the easy tasks in an hour - this would not be a
perfect outcome ;-)

	What most interests you in LibreOffice ? do you have some deeper goal
in one of the components / filters / features we can help you with ?
[ and are you on IRC ? ] :-)

	Thanks,

		Michael.
