I'm actually going to be spending a chunk of the day with this today starting around 11am.

If anyone has any questions about it, I'd be glad to ask and post the the answers.

Yes, this is the "UTD RB", for lack of a better phrase. Andrew and Leon worked closely together on this one. Its been in the works for quite some time.

I'll report back within the next day or 2.

Mod post:

At the request of a few, and to avoid negative past issues, I've changed the title of this thread. Content is fine, I think many people just don't want this to be tagged with a term full of baggage.

Proceed with your regularly scheduled thread . . .

No other Meg offers as much redundancy as the version with the double-sided Dil does.
