Please join john-dev and bring these questions up in there.  Although
you're not exactly developing John itself, the topic is appropriate for
john-dev, but not for john-users (anymore).  Let's not annoy John
end-users with discussions of the source code when we have a separate
list for that.

Thanks,

Alexander
