It's unfortunate that it takes so long to get things moving, I agree, but with everything that's going on - bear in mind people deal different with situations like the present - it is what it is. My current dayjob doesn't pay me for working on this so the time I dedicate to this comes out of my spare time and weekends - Personally I'd rather not burn out and keep functioning in the long run. Thanks, Moritz
