</I>><i> Samuel Verschelde, going to grab some packages
</I>Ok, I’m grabbing my packages there are quite a lot of them that should
disappear now.
Though, I’m in the process of moving to another city atm, so I’m very
busy at the moment and can’t do a lot wrt maintainance of my packages.
Hopefully everything will get sorted sooner or later, but I don’t expect
to have much time until christmas…
Sorry for not announcing this earlier, but personal life got in the way
sooner than I expected :/
Please don’t hesitate to contact me by direct mail if you’re stuck on
some of my packages like Stormi did a few days ago, I read them (but not
daily)
Best regards,
