Yes aboslutely!  Jeff has been invaluable for all of the improvements in 
the client.  I congratulate him on a job well done!  I don't at all want to 
frown poorly on him.  We are trying to help with funding any way we can.

The problem issues are just "on the table" and I'm trying further the 
discussion.  After 1.4 is released and Freelance mode works, and encryption 
works, then the problem of needing the loopback (as a requirement) can be 
addressed.  It would be nice to have the installer install the loopback if 
it isn't found.

I'm just saying you don't make things a "requirement" if they don't 
currently work.   Right?
