Just a short note to point out 2 things:

1) as newbie friendly as the descriptive package names are as
   the setup dialog box cannot be adjusted in size most of the
   description is invisible (1600 x 1200)

2) at the risk of sounding like an old stick in the mud, I preferred 
   the shortform names... in conjunction with a fix for (1) could we
   have both shortform names and descriptions or perhaps a toggle 
   between the two.

Constructively,

Lawrence
