actually, I did try to get RichardSpace configuration to work last night,
and got the demographics, and am now try to work out
what obsolete dependencies the gmGP has , so I can see it
again. Noticed the new icon based left sided spacious tab looks good.

BTW i had to directly update the cfg_string row which had value
status_quo to  terry or somesuch. Is there another way of setting
which gui gets loaded?
