QH is fine, we don't want to go the Christian route. 

Lets take a look after San Antonio at other bits though 
and do a bit of packaging.

For once I agree with Chris.

However,

For little things it's too much effort to package things properly.
I should have packaged the QH terms but adding 10+ routines for
the sake of one term is rediculous. It's not just the effort; do we
really want 1000+ lines of code added for the sake of those terms?

Of the recent stuff the most obvious thing to package is EOS and
after San Antonio perhaps we'll do that. EOS should have been packaged
well before Martin added the various options - indeed we said that
before he started but we also wanted him to get the code in rather
than not.

I don't know what to do about the little things though...
