Nice to know.
But perhaps it wouldn't be a *very* bad idea to make use of our small
community to do some tests, what do you think?

(Thanks to the feedback from the users, the releases of such systems as,
say DrScheme, are more frequent, the debugging is more thorough, and
*everybody* is happier.)

And, anyway, please: testing and debugging done only by the authors of
any package can never be complete.
