Dave, I hope you didn't get this into the "wrong throat" as a german
saying says. I have yet to meet a unpaid free software developer in the
accessibility area that approaches coding with such professionality
and thoughtfulness as you. I have learnt a lot in the
past few years working with you, and I couldn't thank you enough for that.
I guess I was trying to push things and convince you to attack this one
this time, I hope you don't see this as a personal attack, it really
wasn't ment to be one.
I still hope we can move forward on this one pretty soon...
