LOL! Well Said. Whoever said that package had to leave CONTRIBS shoulda have been shot (But grats to Guillaume for reacting so quickly). Contribs is there for a reason. It's not part of the "standard" distribution, and god forbid, should you install all 4.7 GB of OS w/ ALL the contribs you might even find this little package on your system.
Though I won't be running it on my desktop (given I don't have enough time to be entertained by it), I do think it is a very tastefully done program.
