27 ...and if you read that council meeting log and even the mail discussion
28 before you will read that I always shared concerns about touching
29 existing user. I was only fine because I was told "We are aware, what
30 you described won't happen" and I didn't make a secret that I didn't had
31 the time to fully review and test myself at this time. Now I had the
32 time to 'play' with this and it looks like all my previous concerns are
33 true.
