Yes, indeed a lot of miscommunication. My mistake is probably my willingness to share my researches. I'm glad when someone is teaching me something outside my domain, such as computer science for me. I had appreciated a lot the help I've got here for the presets for example. If my sayings looks pedant, I apologise, it is not at all my goal.
