I don't think it's worth to waste time on this. If it's done, I'm fine.
1month ago I didn't have time to work on patches. And I think I made it
clear that I don't want to install and compile all software related to git
code. 
But I really don't want to discuss it. It is very nice that you are actually
working on it. thanks.

ok, so you are nicer as I thought ;-) please ask him to add something in the
example to get this clear.

Hi, it's not urgent. I am not working on commercial app. I could do it
myself, but so far everything I've tested looks ugly ... so I think you
know the API better and can suggest something elegant as in all your
examples.

Please, don't take everything that personal. Let's discuss the issue not the
circumstances.

I think I'll wait to see what you'll show in the examples.

Thanks and kind regards
