Boy. Talk about jumping in at the deep end (to mix my metamphors). Just when
I thought I was getting a handle on all this BEEP stuff I'm introduced to
features. I have to say I'd tried to find out how the 'Extensible' bit
worked. I guess I should've read the RFC from start to finish.

I don't suppose you have an 'Idiots Guide to Adding Features' do you?
