@zaasgd do you need this PR merged? Problem is, I can't merge due to conflicts. If you need it could you pull the changes from @dvdvorle, resolve the conflicts and PR again?

@Jiuyong sorry this has escaped my attention. It is a shame that a good PR was left lying around for 10 years ... let me say that much: It definitely wasn't by intention.
