I appreciate your help like this patch, and your other contributions of "project secretary" kind, pointing out old threads, prodding about unapplied patches, etc., because I do not have infinite amount of time. The text seems to follow my "this might flow more naturally and easier to read" outline exactly, and I do not have a problem with the patch itself. Among the people who were involved in the review, Jidanni seemed to be of the same opinion, but I haven't heard from Dscho one way or another. So I'd keep this on hold for now but I think the examples are organized much better with this version and we should take it.

I see a smiley, but what's with the animosity? One thing I've always liked about your messages to this list is that they have an exceptional signal to noise ratio, certainly much better than mine [*1*]. I saw you were annoyed by his recent "bug tracker" remark in another thread, and I do appreciate that you are showing a better way to help by setting an example, but I think this comment is counterproductive. [Footnote] *1* You certainly never said anything like giving furniture to somebody else ;-)
