Hello Tom,

Thank you for the patch!

There a few minor thing to adjust from your patch:

1. Add your copyright at the top of the file.

2. End your git title and message lines with a colon.

2. Use the latest version of the package, 1.0.6.

3. Keep the description line under 80 character.

4. Add a comment about why the tests are disabled, in our case

there is no test suite.

Cheers,

- Brice
