Hi Ricardo,
Sorry, I haven't even got my hands on the software yet.  The project  
leads still wanted some more time to wrap it up before making it  
public :(  That is too bad because I know many of you would love to  
help with it... hopefully only a couple more weeks (though I've been  
saying that for months..sorry).
