Me bad, what I wanted to say was that while the developers would know
the naunces of 1KB & 1 KiB when giving support to users who might not
be so technically sound as you it might arise to problems esp. as I
see you guys are actively working on v3 now (yay!).

[More OT]  Looking forward to more news, screenshots, videos the
works when v3   is near to ready or ready [/More OT] ;)
