 * Hi Michel,
 * thanks for putting your effort into that! Last change made the trick. I was able
   to activate your plugin.
 * Are you going to put these changes in your new release (in the pro version)?
 * Many thanks and kind regards,
    Thomas

 * You’re welcome.
 * Yes, as of version 1.5 for the free release and 1.7 for the pro versions these
   changes will be implemented.
 * If you want to go pro before we’ve released 1.7 (where on 1.6 at the moment),
   just give me a sign when you installed the pro version and I will provide you
   with the updated files.
 * Best regards,
    Michel
