Hello Christian.

Please don't delay it and apply it whenever you consider appropriate,
in case It doesn't represent you problem.
I'm currently spending the very seconds and bits I've on the next
release of this software and I think I would be delaying more and more
if I would have to do it myself.

Thanks for your time and for caring about auth2DB.
