    Hello,
    Thanks for the report,
    Probably I made a mistake when doing "last minute changes" just before the release". Sorry for that. I will correct the problem and upload a new version.

    Hello Brian,
    I have created CONTRIB-4315 tracker issue to keep track of the problem and published a new corrected version (1.11). As I expected it was only a 1 word change.Stupid mistake and not well tested code from me. Sorry for the inconvenience.
