This hardly affects the utility of the software. In the long term one 
would try not to generate unnecessary warnings. I will help where I can 
but I am diving for the next week (doing lots of dive mode changes !!) 
and am not sure of the quality of my connections over there. But please 
communicate to my gmail address (fergusonwillem at gmail.com) if there is 
anything I could help with. I feel a special obilgation to help here 
because you and Robert are sorting out a mess that I created, something 
that I am immensely thankful for.

Kind regards,

willem
