as I see now, I answered all of them.

Perhaps this is just an unfortunate misunderstanding, I don't
want to "left your responses". Really sorry again.

I just asked a simple question.

sounds good,

Right, thanks.

I am very happy to help and I am very happy to prepare the
package.

I just asked you, because this would be my first Nginx module
package, and it would have been nice if someone controll the flow
of adoptation.

The package is done, I shared the Salsa repository URL before.
You don't need to adopt it - but again: it would be a huge help,
if someone takes a look it.



I'm really sorry again to bother you, really wasn't the aim...
