Mainly because I don't have time, I only have access to that git, and
I have another job :) I did a bit of work on it last december that I
didn't release. It's still on my hard drive. Huw's DIB tree is similar
in concept to what I did. He was my mentor if you remember. But it
doesn't mean what I was doing was usable. I trust Huw can manage
building the basis of a DIB engine alot better than me. But I will
likely download his tree and play around with it before school starts
again.
