There is a web interface +if you prefer to see the changes, just use "http" as the protocol in +your web browser. + +The first few changes in the branch are fixes and small enhancements I +found while working on this, and I have sent them as separate patches +for acceptance as they are independent of this work. All of this has +been in use (in the form of the branch without "-v2") for almost a +year. I started a message in August but somehow successfully forgot +completely about it. + +Regards, + +Servilio
