Hello, Thank you for your reminding John, that had to be said. May I enlighten my point, I don't want to promote any tool or any company, I just share knowledge. Knowledge which, when it comes to automation, turns into code. I will also do it with passion when this code is free (as in speech), because anyone can benefit from it. Thus enabling anybody to (like Newton said) "build on the shoulders of giants" ; which makes sense for accessibility.
