  excuse me:
    I am not quite familiar with it, and also have to do another things.
    so I have to spend additional time resource to make sure about it.

    I should make sure about it within this week (2013-04-21)
    I should finish related test (if need), within next week (2013-4-28)

  if have additional suggestions or completions, please reply.
    (if no reply, I will follow the time point above)

  thanks.
