Greetings, Bruno.
I had no time yet for reading it all, but I should say --
congratulations and thank you very much. It's very well planned and
written, and we Dragorians (I'm not one, just a "hoper") missed
something like this.
If I had more knowledge and experience in the area, I'd probably call
you a genious -- one of my desires a while ago was to develop myself
into someone that could do for Dragora what you are doing; I followed
other paths, not to the same objective, and couldn't achieve that, but,
since you already started the thing, I'll contribute where I can.
I'll procede to further reading and studying to see what I could do.
Thank you very much,
Gustavo
