[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi Maxim,

thanks for your review. I hope I addressed your comments. Additionally:

- I used the configuration->documentation command to generate
  documentation from the configuration record

- I discovered match-record-lambda and use this instead of match-record

Could you have another look please?

Thank you, Roman.
