Although these are also useful as a result, these require somewhat technical skills, I guess.

Josip Rodin or Wichert Akkarman, would you please contact me if you'd like to give me cvs write access permission on the SPI-pages repository? regards, -- Nobuhiro IMAI <nov@yo.rim.or.jp> Key fingerprint = F39E D552 545D 7C64 D690 F644 5A15 746C BD8E 7106
