A very quick review doesn't raise any significant flags, though I do have a question or two that I might have for you in the next few days (need to read through the code more carefully to be sure I understand it correctly). My 24HDT is having some trouble initializing with the patches applied, but I'll need some time to track down the cause. Not sure how much I'll get done this week (holiday weekend) but next week I should have some feedback.
