Thanks for taking this into account :-) And yes, you are right !

Seems very familiar to me. The changes referred to above took more

No issue for me. The time I'll need to implement the code using those

Both from the Contiki (on the C64 and the Apple2) and from the
Apple2-in-general perspective I'm very happy with the current snapshot
so I'd love to see that as 2.12 !
