Thanks for pointing this out. So how should I phrase it? As above? If
so, where do we tell people how to build it? Or is it obvious to anyone
who is trying?

If it could use instructions, would someone like to write it up? Or was
something already posted on the mailing list which tells all?

So many questions, so little time :) As you can tell, I haven't tried
myself...
