Hi Akemi,

Thanks for the home page.
I made the two corrections mentioned earlier and then one for the road
(changed "irsii" to "irssi"). Didn't catch it the first time around, since
I thought it was a new fork or similar. I couldn't find it with google
though, so I deduced it to be a typo.
All went smoothly.

Cheers,
Mika
