[Hendrik Hoeth]

Dear Mikhail,

Thus spake Mikhail KIRSANOV (Mikhail.Kirsanov at cern.ch):

>  Dear rivet developers,

You can reach the Rivet developers under <rivet at projects.hepforge.org>,
NOT under the private e-mail addresses of some of them.

What kind of check are you talking about? What kind of error do you see
at what stage when doing what on what system?

Please provide a proper bug report to the Rivet mailing list.

Best regards,

    Hendrik
