When you stated my motivation for tackling the packaging issue was one of wanting to score a quick, cheap "win," I took that as a personal insult. I see things got a bit out of hand with the inclusion of the Daemon issue, and I understand you do indeed put up with a good number of hecklers and well-intending do-nothings. Please give me the benefit of the doubt and assume I'm neither here, and please accept my apology for running as long with this as I did. I'm often more stubborn than I need to be; even if it's not the most pleasant approach, often that's what it takes to get things done. --- "Jordan K.
