Hi all,
I am also would like to say how pride I am of being part of 
the project IzPack. Thanks to all for there good work.

For some days (weeks??) I have looked into the logging sources
from Elmar. Additional I have played a little bit with the XML
stuff from him. Seems all OK. As first step of "XML shifting"
I plan to change com.izforge.izpanel.util.SpecHelper to this.
May be we can use both ways in 3.10 to give all users time to change
there custom code.
But - as many of us :-( - I have to work in the moment from early 
morning upto evening with things I do not really like, but got 
my money for it. Our final release is planed for 30. March with
some intermediate steps. Therefore I do not know at what time I am
ready to check in.
In the moment I have suspended my play with access rights
in registry handling.

Cheers

Klaus
