That's definitely a big improvement even if I'm completely unable to understand a single line (everybody knows how dumb I am). Who takes care to report this to samba-technical (assuming the patch is correct, which I'm blindly doing)? That probably needs being able to talk about the details with the Samba Team, which excludes me..:-) Steve? Julien? Or is Jerry listening enough? :)
