I'm really sorry about this: I've simply replied to your email...

Do you think you could work on it in the near future?

Bye,
Gabriele


Please don't post followups to the announcements list. All followups should 
go to the main mailing list. I haven't done Vexira support yet. To be 
entirely honest, I forgot about it.
