Thats not that big a deal as for the basic stuff, the code is quite  
straight forward.  However, the bigger issue is for modules.  The wiki  
page is still completely oriented towards version 1 as I have never  
tried version 2.  What has to be changed with modules to use them with  
version 2?  I suspect that the wiki page will quickly lose its value  
otherwise.
