Thanks for the compliment.
Thanks for telling that there is a some kind of a fix.
Thanks for the invitation to "come and get it"

But it doesn't work this way.  And frankly, this E-mail I writting now
(the one you are reading now) does neither any work.

However, I volunteer to do work that could AND SHOULD have been avoided.

I gonna download the tar.gz, unpack it and post 'wmlive-fix-install'
to this mailinglist.
