Hi Sam,

I looked at your github.io page, but didn't immediately find any info on
your health...


I am glad to hear from you.

The installer changes are almost completely backend changes, which I
tried to explain, but I must have not done this well.

To be more clear, the user interface will not be effected by the current
changes.  These are all code cleanup and bug fixes for the underlying
functions, rather than changing the user interface.

Also, haXe is a wonderful programming language!  It is really quite fun
to use :)
