Do you want to inform me something is wrong with my code?
I have no needs to import ooMisc.__solverPaths__ each time. It is 
imported only once per Python session, no matter how many solvers were 
called, as well as it is redefined in rPS.py to dictionary just a single 
time per session.

I just said " it's not my job to get ALGENCAN workaround." I have to do 
my GSoC milestones from OOTimeLine and no more, so it's is up to me to 
decide to do any additional job or not to do, aa well as  choosing which 
one.
