    Thank you very much sir !!!
    I will encourage my project manager to use the latest development tree  :- )
    You are someone I admire the most, not only the elegant code,
normative code comments and design documents ( that's rare in
opensource), but also .....oh, how to say in english ( my poor
english! )
    I will improve my english skill.
    How to become a programmer like you? Could you give me some suggestion?
