ok, I can look into that one.

Yep, that should be easy if someone could get an example file and try it out.

I assume you and Troy can look into that while you are looking at the
other osis2mod problem?

sounds good to me (though I'd like to get 1.5.9 out by the end of Jan
(well, really I'd like it out by the end of the year but I can't see

1.5.8) and backport any fixes to that.
