It's not a big job, probably changing couple of lines. I'm more worried 
about the crashes, I have to find the reason - it may be very simple but 
I don't know yet how long it takes.

Dylon Edwards sent a post asking a "homework assignment". Is it too late 
for that? Dylon, if you read this, could you still do something before 
the weekend? We could leave the Bookshelf Manager install progress 
dialog user interface for you if you want to try it. It means changing 
the order of the items and maybe some other small improvements. I would 
like the items to be a little bit shorter vertically so that they 
wouldn't take so much space. Also the dialog height could be adjusted 
according to the amount of the items. If you are interested I can give 
more detailed specifications.
