I don’t blame you. I wasn’t all that motivated to getting around to forwarding 
his request.

I hear ya and pretty much feel the same way. I get similar stuff regarding 
codepage settings and the like for the installer. Sure, I could look up what 
the settings “should be” but I have no way to tell if what I see is correct. I 
don’t read 1000 foreign (to me) languages. 

And, why put those requests there and not send them where the belong? 

But, I figured I could at least make you aware of them.  That way you could 
decide if you just  wanted to wait and see if they care enough too one or two 
extra steps to contact you.
