Sounds great.
I will try to install the latest image from Ruediger Gad and if I don't get that one \

Answer: When someone made the adaptation. This is a community effort:<br>
Adaptations happen if someone makes them happen. If you have the skill<br>
to do it yourself or the money/power/charms to make someone else do it,<br>
it can happen pretty fast. If not and nobody else has, than it will<br>
never happen.<br>
