My apologies, Will, for the lack of feedback.
I have added your new patches to the others in your excellent 
collection. But hey, install zyn ( or yoshimi ) and you get the William 
Godfrey Collection included! For a good reason. Some kudos there I 
think. :-)
And I don't think your contribution to the testing of Yoshimi went 
unnoticed; certainly not by me.

It makes me wonder what the problem is ( and am I guilty myself? ):
In an off-list email Dave Philips commented on the lack of feedback he 
receives about his music.
Bruce McCosar ( whose blog in included in PlanetLinuxMusicians ) once 
wrote that despite having several albums on Jamendo with thousands of 
downloads and tens of thousands of listens he'd received zero feedback.

I've seen over a thousand downloads from my site in the last year ( not 
bad for an amateur-crap-artist who makes no effort to promote himself ) 
and I have a big fat contact tab there, but how many people have clicked 
on it? two, and neither of them actually mailed me, not even to slag me off!

So I understand why you may be a little dismayed; but as Arnold says, 
checkout your download statistics, and take cold comfort from what is 
written there!

Best wishes, Garry.
