hey yarik and michael,

Please don't diminish the value of your contributions: over the last

> such a huge difference when it solidified, and your work is on the
> same lines.  It's time consuming, not always fun and critically

> written in the first place, but the packaging part is not just a
> footnote.  Great job, and much appreciated.

wholeheartedly agree with fernando and thanks for bringing the community
closer.

cheers,
