[PD] Nettles. Was: Cyclone: List of Issues with existing objects by Alexandre Porres

[Marco Matteo Markidis]

Dear Fred,

some of the objects proposed by Porres could be added in cyclone? If yes,
we can work on them; otherwise I see your todo list[1]. If you confirm this
list probably it's better to work to fix bugs.

Cheers,

Marco Matteo Markidis
