Hello Alexander, list,

Yes I know the way a put the source on my page wasn't really the way
it should be. I guess it's still not, but... I managed to build a
.diff for it.
Thanks to Andrey Mitrofanov who took the time to walk me thru the process.

As for the transistional packages; I'll go with Mike on that one. If
we make them from Seamonkey, we will have to start with tricks like
epoch. Let's use mozilla for transitionals so Seamonkey can start
clean.
