I didnt know what the status of it or all the details of how it was to 
work (I knew basics, enough to satisfy me but didn't pay more attention 
to it as I had other things to work on) . Also why I could only give you 
partial details of why the build shouldn't just totally fail. Reason why 
I told you to follow up on the list before there were differing things 
being done.

Pierre, when you have time could you briefly describe thats its going to 
be doing. I only remember certain bits and pieces from you and 
Elizabeth, and also thought this wasn't something that was going to be 
rushed into the 5.3 tree. I want to make sure that it will be providing 
functionality that I am looking for - I want configure to fail but only 
after having checked everything so i can get a summary of the problems.
