Yes I saw it; I incorporated your changes, excepting I used
'requested to create' instead of 'required to create'

I did phone them both yesterday and today, but haven't managed to
talk to the right person (which I believe is Michelle Cotton.)

I don't have an email address for her and haven't been able to

I actually tried to post this to the mailing list and got
bounced with 'greylisting active' or some such :-(

I'll publish tomorrow around noon one way or the other.
