We'll see I finally got into testing this. Sorry for latencies, I'm
switching jobs and unfortunately German Post Office lost my priority
mail containing contracts (sent them from Finland to Berlin) so have
been signing, scanning etc. the whole day :-) My last week in the
current job, and next week is the first in the new job, so this
week is a bit bumpy.
