I appreciate your help like this patch, and your other contributions of
"project secretary" kind, pointing out old threads, prodding about
unapplied patches, etc., because I do not have infinite amount of time.

The text seems to follow my "this might flow more naturally and easier to
read" outline exactly, and I do not have a problem with the patch itself.
Among the people who were involved in the review, Jidanni seemed to be of
the same opinion, but I haven't heard from Dscho one way or another.  So
I'd keep this on hold for now but I think the examples are organized much
better with this version and we should take it.

HOWEVER.

I see a smiley, but what's with the animosity?  One thing I've always
liked about your messages to this list is that they have an exceptional
signal to noise ratio, certainly much better than mine [*1*].

I saw you were annoyed by his recent "bug tracker" remark in another
thread, and I do appreciate that you are showing a better way to help by
setting an example, but I think this comment is counterproductive.

[Footnote]

*1* You certainly never said anything like giving furniture to somebody
else ;-)
