Good, and as expected. There were recent changes in the code one needs to
accommodate recent changes at the website.

Well for that you may have to talk to Yahoo! rather than this list.

It was _years_ ago that exchanges started to derive more than half their
total revenue from data sales. That we still get this data this is a small
miracle, and in large part due to some folks tirelessly toiling away to
update the code. It is appreciated.

Cheers, Dirk
