Well, I'm not questioning that changes are required, and I'm happy to
implement them once I've come to a clear understanding of what is needed,
I just would have liked to known about them earlier, especially the major
concepts.
I know there was probably no one interested enough at the time, everyone
is busy, not every idea presented can be reviewed in detail etc etc. And
it's not a big issue, just a minor annoyance.
