I'd like to strongly second this recommendation.  I've been running minimyth 
for over a year (maybe approaching two years?  I dunno) and it's slicker 
than whale fat.  When I upgraded to 0.22, I updated the backend, then 
updated minimyth, solved one problem that affected all of them, and I was 
*done*.  Fire and forget!
