Hereward isn't _yet_ a developer.  Despite packaging stuff and having 
it uploaded by sponsors he is stuck in NM hell.  Give him a break, 
people, he's a good coder and all round good type.  He is stuck at an
English public school (read private, fee paying for non-UK types)
and the school can be fascist with their own pupils.  They may give
him a hard time for the hell of it.

Somebody listen and bounce this guy further forward in the NM queue.
He's not delayed by lack of talent AFAICS and it might mean he can
read mail direct from master.

[Declaration of bias: I'm the one that put Hereward forward as advocate.
I have the _highest_ regard for both his integrity and coding skills.  
I don't care how many people may not want to hear this - I want it as
a matter of public record that he is worthy]
