[GNUz] SFD work

[Rik Tindall]

Hi Dave,

Thank you for noticing SFD Chch! And for wanting to be involved :-D

Most welcome! A quick reply - b4 off to a meeting..

I have had help from Don Robertson in particular, so far. Anything and 
everything around what we've done you are welcome and invited to add. A 
bit of a rolling maul, here - we'll see where it goes..

Kind regards
