	Hi!
 
 I didn't notice that you were responsible for the package, otherwise I
would just have crossed the room. ;)

 Yes, something like that, maybe with rearranging the sentence a bit.

 Great. :)

 Oh, right, didn't check too close on that - and given that I'm not a
native speaker myself and not familiar with the package at hand I'm not
feeling too comfortable with fiddling around with its description, I
just noticed that it's starting off a bit incomplete. :)

 What old name do you refer to? Gerfried? Well, Rhonda is just a nick
name (and the email address holds that already), and I haven't really
deciced which proper name I would like to go by, to be honest ...
Different story, we can talk that IRL, if you want. :)

 So long!
Rhonda
