Oops - I thought I mailed the list, not you alone.

I wrote it, under the assumption that no other companies would want to
support our installers (*not* PG support - that's covered in the next
paragraph). As far as I know, noone else at EDB has bothered to read
it. It was one of those Friday afternoon things that got rattled off
in five minutes when I realised we had nowhere to note licence details
or where to get help etc.

As I said - patches are welcome.
