Just went through the whole day yesterday with Vess - most excellent 
session. We did talk about you a little - only nice things! The Internet 
connection here has been so abominable that I'm sure he could not get to

He did say that with your setup, one can start after all the first parts 
- not sure if it is easy to identify where that is, have not looked at 
the README yet.

Now to go home and report to Richard!
