Hi Axel,

Thank you for your work (I mean, you together with the whole OOTB).
Please, feel free to ask for details, modifications or developments to AAAR
to make the integration more "easy", "clean" and "standard".

Cheers,

-F

PS: Starting from the 18th of june for 10 days, I won't be available but
before and after I could actively work on it.
