Hi Wiljo, 

absolutly great idea,
I love PvaStrumento and want to utilize the chance to say thank you for great

Klaus that's an easily-to-understand reason, but maybe you can grab the chance
to think about the the advantage of a PTS-supporting cut-list, because of
the earlier discussed posibility of a net-supported cut-list exchange,
