Other Comments
Dr. Jianfeng Wu, has been working on this application for the past month or
so. Once again, this developer has done a fantastic job. I cannot overstate
his skill, work ethic, and contribution to this community. I am truly amazed
by the product of his work.
Having said that, since the application is brand new, Dr. Jianfeng Wu is
asking for any feedback we can provide to help improve the app.
