Hi, Robert!

Thank you for the pointer. Temporal features are not exactly within my
scope, but you are right, topics are close to each other. I'll look
into the patch with temporal features and assess whether I can provide
a meaningful review.

I do not know how to gather the attention of all how is interested in
this kind of features. I read hackers@ digest regularly, used search a
lot, but that temporal work slipped away from my attention.

Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
