Dear Axel,
While I may not be useful in development (not a coder) , I would
definitely be interested in being the guinea pig and any tests that
you want me to run after every new release. Using adequate has
certainly made my life a bit easier, although at times it does have
false-positives. Maybe there is something there I could help with ?
Looking forward to know in whichever way I could help out.
:)
