Thanks for the tips!

I also sent the same mail to [email protected], so if you
are interesting in the topic, you may want to look what people are
answering there to :) I had to send the mail two times because
linux-admin rejected my mail the first time.

If anyone else have some more info, I will be happy to read and learn from them!

Thanks
