Rafael,
I really appreciate when anyone makes an effort to contribute. I think
this is what a good community is all about. If everyone is willing to
contribute even just a little bit for the things that matter most to
them, I and others will be that much more motivated to do a little as
well, and in the end, all the little bits add up to a lot of benefit for
the whole community. So thanks you for following up your constructive
criticisms with constructive actions!!
