Good morning Paul,

If you are quite sure there are things wrong and you don't feel
comfortable fixing them, then you can always make the suggestion on the
Discussion page, hoping the original author or someone else fixes it.  

As for the z/VM person about whom you spoke, I believe you are talking
about Alan Altmark.

Regards,
Lindy
