Well, I'm not questioning that changes are required, and I'm happy to 
implement them once I've come to a clear understanding of what is needed, 
I just would have liked to known about them earlier, especially the major 
concepts.

I know there was probably no one interested enough at the time, everyone 
is busy, not every idea presented can be reviewed in detail etc etc. And 
it's not a big issue, just a minor annoyance.
