Hi Offray,

That’s a lot to process for me, I need some time to inspect your workflow to 
find the possible connections with the ILE. I will do that in the next few days 
and give you more detailed feedback.

As for the Linux testers, I will gladly come back to you. I think it won’t be 
too hard to make the ILE support Linux and Windows. The platform dependency is 
only induced by the way an OS allows one to register custom URI schemes.

Cheers,
Manuel
