    Howdy Malcolm

    I wonder if you would mind switching the KBase submission to WIP so that I can make the changes we discussed?

    Thanks!

    It depends on where it will be used. If it's just for home use or something similar i would say it's alright... In cases of extremely sensitive material I would say no.... I've already noticed a pattern. If I get some more spare time I'll try to crack this.
