What does that plus one mean?  I do not know where people picked
up this annoying plus or minus one business, but could you all
stop that?

If you are volunteering to help debugging and feeding bugfixes
that is very much welcome and appreciated.

Thanks.

Sorry, I sent the message without finishing.  What should have
followed is...

  On the other hand, if you are saying "yes, shallow would fit
  my workflow and would be useful to have, but I do not have
  time nor inclination to help hacking on it", that is also
  fine.

  But "+1" does not help me tell which one you really mean.
