   No, but they've also been quick to report that files are appearing correctly on   
   their systems, since I started playing with the script. :)  So, no negative   
   reports, plenty of positive ones.

   Yes, that's about the size of it.  I haven't upgraded to a Pi 3 yet.  I'm in   
   two minds.  The extre speed will be handy, but the increase in current draw   
   rules out a lot of "generic" power supplies.  As I rely heavily on DC-DC   
   converters, this is an issue, I have to be careful whatI used to power them.    
   The Pi 1 and 2 series will happy run from off the sheld DC-DC converters, so I   
   can run them from my 13.8V DC supply easily (obviously with an automotive style   
   DC-DC converter).
