I don't plan to steal your work. If you feel confortable with my 
proposal, feel free to continue with it and amplify it. You have done 
most of the job, you have a clear view of all subtilities in the 
different architectures, so please continue, I don't plan to take over 
the good work you've done until now.

The only purpose of my series was to illustrate my comments and convince 
myself it was a possible way, nothing more.

Thanks
Christophe
