You do not have to be or say sorry. This is a team effort, and I am
reasonably sure that I did not catch _all_ similar bugs in this
iteration. So before you send an updated version, please make sure
that you just do not fix this one only and be content with it.
Instead try to see if there are other similar issues and fix them,
too.
Thanks.
