Hi Christophe,

	Quite.

	Can you commit this one; most of these should be on HEAD.

	The 2nd patch looks fine albeit large; better to have this
functionality than not though. Can you write an appropriate ChangeLog,
and commit it. It'd also be nice to change the:

	i = strcspn (file_info->name, "\r\n");

	to be the length arg for a g_strndup; so we don't waste space.

	Looks lovely; can you commit with ChangeLog / close bug etc.

	Ok - the fix is already in HEAD and stable, I've closed it.

	Should go in similarly; please commit.

	We no longer compile that code; so lets ignore that one for now.

	Looks fine; needs a ChangeLog obviously.

	That's going to need a larger audit / report here I guess ?

> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41279

	Should be easy to fix; we should do that, can you test / commit a patch
?

	That's really great; it's wonderful to have you maintaining the
gnome-vfs bugzilla.

> I kept those 1.0 bugs, but they probably could be closed: 

	Sure; it's worth closing those bugs fixed in 2.0, with 'fixed in 2.0'
or somesuch, particularly where there's no chance of fixing them for
1.4.

	I had a go; looks like you're doing a great job.

	Thanks,

		Michael.
